Am I correct in assuming car is now in UK?
If so what border procedures were necesary with all the contamination? Get very serious about here.
I am not familiar with engine swaps from very different models, but can someone explain the engine mounts?

Not lilke Oz!
I have done three London to Sydney Marathons (1968/93 & 2004) each time we came in from India & the checks from the immigration/Flora & Fauna Police (can't remember their name) were more & more stringent. It would take a book to tell the story of how they examine cars. They would have had kittens over this one! It took two days in 100 degrees (Fahrenheit & humidity) in Cochin to clean a virtually new Rally prepared Suzuki Ignis before flying to Darwin. No one will do it again that way I think Oz to Europe in future
The engine mounts look well engineered, I'll try for different shots

Interesting rubber mountings for the engine.

I was intrigued by the engine mountings too.
Even new cars get special treatment for import (or export, depending on your point of view) to Australia. Unique I think (in thoroughness, at least).
