It goes like a go-kart, very nippy when you get it going in the high rev range.
Surprisingly this one is not rotten. It's had new arches in the past. It's come from Scotland too
It's on Koni coilovers and polybushed all round, the ride is quite hard/harsh
Not many left now

Yes same engine Rob. They're pretty much bullet proof and nippy at high revs. 9k rpm
Not many left according to this, about 600

Had some fun in a Mk1 MR2 with that engine - but it suddenly seized on me one day!!!
No one could understand it and said they were super reliable and never seized!!!
I'm sure your's will be fine - these impossible things only happen to me normally!!!
