Possibile project (probably way off in the future)

[Megamonkey]

it would be really cool but really expensive...

Well I hope not, I was only thinking of doing it scrap heap challange esque! Bodge it till it works

Go for it mate, the later vitaras have HDi engines so you might be able to adapt one of those

Bleugh HDi ... not really the best engine to mix with mud and water haha!

XUD ones are rare, but I kinda want to try and make it simple as possible ... as I say I'm a spanner with a hammer

Its the commercial (van) ones that have the XUD engine like Sam Barker had, all the older style passenger ones have 1.4 or 1.6 petrol engines in IIRC.

like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suzuki-Vitara-...039wt_1189

Aye, it was Sam's thread that got me thinking about the combination of a vitara and mini.

Thanks for the link but dam that ones quiet expensive ... was hoping that the mini shell and vitara would come in together at under £1000





Anyways as I said its quite a way off, tho I might consider getting the Vitara sooner tho and use as a car for a bit before I start the project so links are helpful !
