in all seriousness i am thinking of now getting a mk2 shell and putting the 2.0 in it as mk2s are the nuts...

Unless it's an ABF (which it isn't) i wouldn't bother mate.

Pick up a solid 8v shell for under £500, swap off all the good bits sell the rest on ebay, weigh in the shell.
You will be back to square one with fully working Mk3 and a parts bin for about £200.
Its only a car and a Mk3 at that :grin:
