Logic says mk2 - as its already had the cossie conversion done which cost a fair packet. It'll be both quick and reasonably 'modern tech'.

Heart says mk1 - its a mk1. Its a genuine mexico. Nuff Said.

Personally I'd get the mex, cossies gonna be a twat on fuel and, from my point of view, much harder to work on.

mk1 mex if it's a genuine one. if the mk2 was a drop nose then i think that'd sway it in that direction. but i wouldn't be looking to get the mex to put a cossie lump in it. keep it original. but either way both very nice.
