Are there any differences between 1.2 LS (93L plate) and 1.2 (99 T plate) and how much work would it be swopping them over?
Also what is an T plate 1.2 engine, box and loom etc worth?

yeah 99- T is 16v
but to be honest, if you are swapping the engine stick a 1.4 or 1.6 in it, cos the work will be about the same

As said the late 1.2 will be 16V the early will be a 8V

I knew someone would say stick in a 1.4 or simialr Its for my old dears car and to be honest a 1.2 suits her fine as she does about 26 miles a week I tried telling her she wanted a LET but she was having none of it

i think i remember asking about this before.... cant find the post though...
iirc alot of people said it would be a bit of a cnut.....
yes doable... but straight swap no....
as far as i know the x12xe has sensors all over it and is generally a piece of poo....
all of the above could be wrong though.... just going from memory
my advise if its for yer mam... is to whack a LET under there only kidding
em.. a replacement 1.2/1.4 8v about 80quid and about 3 hrs work....
