It failed it's mot and I couldn't get the work finished before the retest, not only that but it needs a new master cylinder, outer cv gaiter and possibly a new gearbox
Like I've said the car was originally bought for my sister so I could swap it back for my super s but she wanted me mot it first, anyway it's a long story I can't be bothered to tell
karl imo its what you feel you can do best mate! like your skill level! but id go for the 1.8 cos then you could do bike carbs on 1.8 and even more bang for your buck
