Tell you what.....If only all motor removales was as easy as cutting the front of the car off I'ld be in business.

I had the motor on the ground surrounded by the front cut. Scratched head and thought "this is going to be a bit tricky". Then remember condition of front cut post removal of engine was not a question. Angle grinder out. Radiator supports gooooooorn. Motor came out of the front nicely. Now to get it in the mini.
