Selling your mini isn't going to make a marriage any better. I'd say "Sorry love, the mini comes first" Any partner who causes you to sell the mini has something wrong with them. What are you doing? It's only a few £K and your petrolheadedness.

Come on, pull it off. Would you sell your pet cat? No. So, pull it off now

Haha - I do have a few cars to run! TR4, TR6, Chimchev, Griff200, Puma, Mini - It is going to best ever now - just before we bloody sell it Stuart at Vmax gave it a final tweek last week - Awesome - but parted up in from of TVR in nice warm garage until sold.

If anyone on here want one of the last carb Cooper S that has had some extra tweekery (it is absolutely PERFECT NICK).

Is that a Vmax converiosn you have - had a go in 2 at Goodwood this year - Stuart knows his SH&T.

The other Stuart (Wrights) was playing up on our laps - but if you ever get achance to have a go in his 190bhp Miglia Rep take him up on it!

No, it's home brew and it's just about to emerge in a different form. Way to go with one of those is blow through. The blowers top out at 64% Adiabatic Efficiency which is crap. The latest one is going the way of the first supercharged mini with the blower in the passenger footwell.

It's off the road now and going to be rebuilt with a BMW head and the blower. May take a few months as I expect to need a rebuild here and there (will) and will cost a few quid, but the engine has to come out and so it would be rude not to.
