I've owned four Minors - all had 1098cc engines, apart from my Traveller which I fitted a 1275cc MG Midget mill into (I still have the original 1098cc to maybe go back in one day...), and one had a Fiat twin-cam engine fitted by a previous owner.

Other members of my family have owned numerous A-series engined cars, such as Minis, Metros, Austin 1300, etc., and most as I recall were pretty reliable, it was usually the dreaded rust bug that caused their eventual demise/sale.
