  1. Wowzers! I bet that's a hoot... And a handful
  2. They have been having some good deals on brake parts recently
  3. I've never heard of a difference between the deck and the hatch - only thing with seats I know of is on the later models with the three 3 point rear seat belts where the mounting points are different to ones with just the lap belt.
  4. Good stuff, proper bargain there mate.
  5. Very nice. Looks like it's going to have a good throaty sound is that bad boy
  6. When do you get your baby back? What's left after this... Mapping?
  7. Nice one Noticed that Rich was selling a beast of an mb on ebay recently.
  8. It's a shame you had to let her go, but as you say, needs must. Just have to think about the opportunities it opens up, and remember the mini fondly.

    New mb6

    Crikey! £60! Was thinking it was a canny find when I saw the low mileage.. But that price!
  10. What about swapping the mini for a cheep run around that you can just run into the ground without it worrying you? I used to do 80 miles a day, and after having an incident which killed my EG, I went through a series of cars for a couple of hundred quid. Cavelier, 309, carina. then got tubs.
  11. So long as DD is staying Why is Mindy just for fair weather? Is there anything that could be done to make her more winter proof?
  12. Yup. I really miss driving the ol'girl. I like Karen's accord, but it's just not the same.
  13. Yep, if I can wind the clock back on her a bit I'm comfortable with that. I always regret that my EG ended up having scrapped, and don't want to end up having the same regret with tubs. And you're right about new cars... I've had loads of hire cars through work this year, and haven't really enjoyed any of them. No soul.
  14. It's my ball and I'm taking it home
  15. Finally got a date for the welding... 23rd October... Looks like a couple of weeks work Then it's back to fuel fixing, service, brake caliper refurbish, disks n pads, and back on the road, then to the body shop. Taking so long to get my baby sorted, and probably going to end up costing around what I paid for her 13 years ago
