Pretty much, 1994 was the last year of the 405 MI 16 / Le Man's.
The engine was pretty crap even back then 
The original 1.9 all alloy 160 bhp engine from the phase one MI 16 was a lot better

wow cant believe how many replies have been posted since this morning, cheers for all your input and suggestions people. i think ill scrap the 1.6 16v option and either get the gasket fixed or or just buy another 1.4 engine, saves alot of time and hassle lol. i do plan to keep this car for a Looooong time because im going to attempt to make a wrc'ish track day car (but without all the proper decals) i think this pic is photoshop'd but this is what i want to achive
