Excellent, sounds great!

Hopefully there won't be too much snow where you are so you can get the hammer down!

Lovely Car, I had a R53 Cooper S and totally loved it. If you are tempted to slightly / tastefully mod the car it is worth speaking to a company called 1320 Mini in Cambridgeshire.

They will advise you on lowering the car and also changing the pulley on the Supercharger for a little more poke, call 01234 376089.

Here my old one,


Nick

I have a new house and a wedding to pay for so needs must sadly. Also, bin the Pirelli runflats and go for either normal tyres, or a different brand of run flat and it'll tramping a lot less.
