Yeah, but I'm thinking in terms of insurance, Suzuki fitted the 1300 SPi in SJs in the factory (late on obviously) so it's less of a modification.

Frank Pickles don't charge extra for different engines anyway... you would have the cheaper tax though

Yeah, that's also true. That's actually one of the reasons I went for an SJ initially instead of a 'Sport'trak or a series Land Rover 2.25, before I fell in love with the Samurai we rented in Turkey.

It's only like an extra £50 a year though... or something similar!

It's well worth £50 a year for the 1600 engine :D
