convert to a vts, and actually inform the dvla and your inurance.
As i can see that you dont plan on doing that with the vtr.

Dude, as a 125gp tuning legend and all round superstar (who did not know if his 1.1 was an 8 or 16 valve) you should be more than capable of a simple engine swap.
Your insurance will rise more than a bloke who steals £10 off his little sister can afford.

Speak to Andy at Highflowheads, he done a gti6 conversion into a saxo VTR for me. Been down and saw some of his work and its to a good standard.
Personally i would get the toolbox out and do an easy conversion like that myself, no point in doing VTR, there slow as death, VTS and keep the bonnet down is the way ahead!!!
