No probs but couldn't resist a tongue in cheek dig :)
ps fitted a 200TDI into my 90 a while ago so if theres any specifics you need just ask :) only one issue mine was a TD and the radiator mounts are too high for a 200tdi rad, ive fitted a TD rad (full width) which is much bigger and relocated the intercooler behind the rad, to be moved in front when I get a modded intercooler.
TD rad never has a problem even when muddy cos its so much bigger than the TDI number, plus its lower so the bonnet closes no probs.
Cheers Steve
Lumbering Jack:
Thanks guys, will pass it on and see if the new engine materialises (no doubt if it does we'll be taking up those offers of having a look and asking more questions! 8-[ )
Les Henson:
You can alter the radiator mounting brackets so that the 200TDi assembly fits and the bonnet closes. Putting the intercooler in front of the TD radiator will make for some fancy pipecraft:)
How I did it-

if you were a fieldmouse it would be very very hard, as a badger or fox would only struggle a little.

I like the surrealist route.
