Hi,
I have just got my 1275 back from the body shop. Next stage is to find a willing and experienced engine rebuilder who is willing to come have a look at my engine. Idearly I would want someone who can come remove my engine take it away repair/enhance the engines performance then bring it back and replace it in the mini. I have never seen or heard this engine running before but think its a metro engine rather than the original, using the engine number guide on here.
Would need some idea on price first so if anyone has any rough price in mind let me know. I am on south east london near bromley
cheers

yer appreciate that, its as long as a piece of string. All i really want at the end of the day is a slight improvment on the standard performance with reliability, Dont want a rocket just somthing comfortable to drive.
