   all depends how much you can get an engine for mate, could get one for £200 up to £600 +
   
   And i think a re-con rear axle is about £300, just keep the drums and get 6pot 330mm drilled and groved disc on the front proper sleeper.
   
   and are you going to do the convertion yourself or get a garage to do it ?

    a saxo vts / pug gti beam will cost between £150 - £200 on ebay and looking at another £200+ for the engine, just make sure you get one from the same sort of age car as thers 2 ecu types, vts front calipers and rotors will be about £200 aswell
