I've got a Saxo 1.4 and i've just recently broken the drivers side wishbone. Rang up a garage and got a new one sent to me today and I took a look @ the one that's broken and it looks completety different. =\

Before i bought the car it had 2 new wishbones and the wishbone I just bought looks like my brothers 1.1. Will putting a different type of wishbone affect anything? Never had anything happen like this, would appreciate some help.

most if not all 1.1s have a cast iron type lower arm and the anti roll bar bolts directly to it whereas Furios and Vt's have a "tubular" type of lower arm and the anti roll bar is connected to the strut with drop links.

Probably the wishbone from a 1.1...
The 1.4/1.6 wishbones look like this..
