Got to have a sit in the Mischief machine myself today . And have a listen to it... the cam does make the idle sound lovely. I also got to meet the very friendly owners DRSIK (& son? - presumed!). Lovely vehicle and very comfy indeed for us slightly larger ones lol.
Next time I will see if you guys can get a quick spin in it - it drives even better than it feels
Ii was great to meet you guys
Yep that was my son Charlie - he is in the position to buy his first car soon and the positive vibes he got at the show mean he now wants a Seicento or a Panda

Quick thoughts guys - leaving ALL other components in place....what is the feasibility of swapping the bottom end to either 1.2 or 1.4. ?
And what would it do to the performance ?
Reminder - Currently it is:-
1.1 8V Spi std ECU IAW 16F
Ported and polished head with Piper fast road cam
Stainless steel 4-2-1 decat exhaust (with spare cat for MOT use)
40mm "Sparky5" throttle body (ace)
GSR Induction kit
Presumably unless much has changed since my days here, the spi 1.2 bottom end is literally a bolt in swap as standard about 6hp extra but 1/3 extra torque due to the longer throw iirc.
yeah thats pretty much it.. you could use a mk2 punto kinda age 1.2 bottom end too - or basically any 1.2 8v FIRE bottom end and it will drop straight in without any changes.
Also, :wave: GhostWKD not seen you around here in a long long time!
