should only pay between 100 and 150 if you need to remove it yourself at most.

Yes it will fit in but you would be as well buyign the whoel car so you can get it running.

you don't half talk a lot of crap.

a bx or 405 MI16 is not faster than a 19 16V.

Unless the 19 is in a bad way.

figures mean feck all. just tell me where your going to get parts for a bx gti once you've ragged it to feck, just because the top end power is more, what about accelaration, im sure the bx gti will be sluggish and is also an old ladys car.
also which one is safer when you crash at 'high speed' in a plastic car? a nicely built r19 16v, or something that has been glued together by model enthusiasts?
