Is it just me, or wouldn't it be cheaper to actually buy a bad example w211 e55 (or even a w210 e55), take the engine/diff/prop/gearbox etc and then drop it into a w202?

edit: Thats assuming people who try and sell it now still want £25K for those (which i highly doubt considering today's economic state).
I'm not worried about the "factory car" thing at all. Do you guys remember a while back when there was that W202 on Ebay with the 55K engine in it? and someone bought it for like 2-3k? (cant quite remember)
I'm sure if he ever gets it running he wont car if its a factory car or not, but the fact that he has close to 500bhp in a car that small is just insane...
But then again when i think of it, can the C43 chassis (brakes and all the rest of it) deal with a 55 engine without any modifications? If it cant that it would turn out more expensive then a C55... But i'd be really interested in hunting down a W202 C55 for the future anyway... mainly because of how rare they are (and i bet they are fantastic to drive!)
Yes I remember that one. Different engine covers to the 'E' and there was a problem with starting (ECU fault)? Think it made around the 2k mark
