From what ive seen they are easier and cheaper to get hold of, its just to get the mini sorted and on the road really then save up for a hotrod tunned redtop later on.

I have an ecotec last year which i brought for £60 but sold it wish i kept it now.

personally i dnt think u should use a cav gsi, because they are a future classic and they are bein taken off the road in there hundreds for their engines and gearboxes. there aint guna be any left at this rate! when i do mine im going to use a corsa redtop as a donor car. im not bein a tw*t or nefin. just my opinion
