Yes Matt, I wouldn't say it's common, but there are a few over here with this mod.
All sorts seem to be fitted here, last year I saw a Minor with a Subaru flat four in it - seemed quite a nice fit.

It was designed for a flat four.Minor with a Subaru flat four in it
Interesting that one of the shortcomings of the Minor's handling is it's willingness to run wide on bends. With a flat four, the engine would be shorter and further back and would help with this handling problem.
Issigonis really was light years ahead of the competition
Older and more confused than I could ever imagine possible.

Don't get too excited Cam!!
It wasn't one of the turbo jobbies, but I suppose that's only the next step. I assume the Subaru stuff is similar to VW in that the outside appearance of different cc engines is nearly the same.
