infact a 405 mi16 4x4 is probably the simplest to get my hands on because the local scrapyard (as in the one at the other end of the village) is a
specialists in peugeots, but that might mean it would be very expensive to buy a whole scrap car of them, guess as long as it less than a few hundred.

I'd have to vote against the Intergrale, unless it's a real about-to-fall-apart shed, as it would be sacraligous (?) otherwise!

Nissan Primera 4wd - same system as the Pulsar rally car, same SE20 block as the 200SX turbo
Renault Scenic X4 
Galant VR4 (same trans as EVO but with twin turbo V6) 
Suzuki Vitara inline and Baleno/Ignis transverse.
Didn't they all have a 4wd version of their repmobiles during the early '90s?

reading about the ford mondeo system it sounds the best out of all the transverse 4x4 gearbox out there. the system found in the 4x4 rs2000 is better
because it has a lsd diff between he front and back but even with a normal out diff the ford system seems to be far superior to most of the others, so
if this project ever gets off the drawing broad in my mind it will most likely be a mtx75 4x4 from a mondeo with a zetec 2 litre with webers

What he means is Jags now feel as worn out as old Fords once the hit 50,000 miles
hmmmmmm!!!!
The "old" "british" jags that I have dealt with are old and worn out at 150,000 miles in my experience, i..e they need shed
loads spending on them and hardly any of the electrics work. Don't know if the new ones are any better, but none of the ford V6 engined cars I
have had have batted an eyelid at 175,000 miles, and several have gone over 225,000 miles with no major work at all, whilst still having unworn seats,
tidy interiors etc.
The jag xj's leather is knacked at 150,000
Retro RWD is the way forward...........automotive fabrication, car restoration, sheetmetal work, engine conversion
retro car restoration and tuning
