Hi all! this is my first post on here! and needing advice already! Just recently brought myself this! absolutely love it, BUT not actually driven it yet as brought it as spares or repairs and yet to fix it! it was heavily burning oil and knocking, the opinion is now that the engine isn't worth fixing, and the most viable thing to do would be to replace the engine, problem is its a sport, with the 1.4 16v AFK 100bhp engine, and its proven an absolute nightmare to source a replacement. Ive been reading the forums and it looks like i can buy the 1.4 16v 75bhp engine and change some parts over (inlet mani, exhaust mani, throttle body, cam's & the ECU) and it should work, I can get the engine no worries, but want i need to know before buying it is that this is definitely the case and this is all i need to change on the engine? can anyone confirm this? is there anything else i need to know about the change? Really want to get the car on the road now Thanks in advance Joe https://www.gumtree.com/p/volkswagen/vw-lupo-1.4-sport-/1108215031
