At some point of time it was a 998 with 1100 crank and +040 pistons (I guess that's close enough to 1.2L). Just as long as it's not the cracked block still.

With the recent work done, it might be entirely different.

I've received a reply from the seller and it is still a 998 block with 1100 crank and +040 pistons.

He's a ausmini member thedog74 is he's username, i'd be a bit concerned about the blanket thrown over the rear seat, looks like it could use some tidying up.
