We have obtained a rear hybrid diff from a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander, and it fits into the front subframe. A lot of work will still be involved to install it but we think it will be minimal cutting and welding to the original subframe.

 

Working from the scanned images of the classic mini A series gearbox, this has now continued with the mock up of the motor sat on top of it.

Garry continues to work on this, refining all the time.
