I find a lot of mini owners tend to just pull engines from good cars, rather than either doing what you are doing or just spending the cash they pay for a donor car, just get the engine rebuilt. I always question what happens to the their old lumps after they drop the engine from the good donor car. They have destroyed quite a few metros, one daft fool, pulled an engine out of a metro that was worth 3k! tried to sell the rest on for a daft price too. Reason how the car was worth 3k, as the same model with similar mileage went for 3k.
