And this government thinks they can bail out the UK end of foreign car makers out and it will somehow all be OK?

For anyone that is interested, the DVLA has dropped the prices for many of its new plates down to £250 inc tax and assignment fee.

Anyone have any idea how hard it would be to drop a C36 engine into my W124?
I guess changing the actual engine would be easy enough but what other parts are different? Is the ECU different?
