We have but unless you're already in love with your car and have personalised it to your exact taste you be better off trading it for a Cooper S.

That's me!

Hope we do find a resolution, but the problem lies in not only an engine swap, you're going to need an upgrade on the clutch, gearbox, exhaust...... not forgetting the brakes too! Very costly.....
