Assume you mean the 106 nad. I went out with the intention of buying one of those and ended up with this! I'll have some fun with it for now and if you're being serious, I'll bear you in mind when I come to sell it on.

No ideas in your head....
OK I wont tell you that I'm pretty sure that the nice big turbo off the earlier T5 volvos bolts up to the 940 turbo manifold.
Also although your car currently needs its cat for the MOT if you get a pre 1st august 1992 engine to transplant then you wont need a cat at all

Think it's around 1400 mark. It might be quite long, but it is a narrow car, so not as heavy as you'd might expect.

I am becoming slightly tempted for a conversion, not something as chronic as that though.
If I had to drop something in, I'd think about 2.4 diesel.
Then that's my tow car sorted

When you said "Small housing estate" I have this picture of an estate full of chavvy jonny sized houses and a huge volvo drifting through them, like driving through lego land but i guess thats not what you ment
