[Duncan Stewart]

Good Luck :D ;)

[Bazthemod]

FAIL :evil:

but..... Didn't fail on too much, which surprised me :cool:

- Side Light
- 2 Tyres
- little bit welding on subframe
- Break pipe through subframe

so not too bad overall!!!!:D:cool::):I

[bpirie1000]

well If your stuck I have tyres here in aberdeen and I can easy make up a brake pipe and send it down..

Shame..

Not a bad list though I have seen alot lot lot worse.. Like 2 pages worth on an old mini..

Like Brizee says... That's nothing!!!
wit till you get one that's spilled over onto the back of the sheet too!
Now front floor and sills, both sides, Front bulkhead rusting at floor, 2 new A-panels, rear suspension doughnut perished, knuckle joints gone, front and back, CV joints and Gaiters, emissions, bent steering arm, leaky rear brake slave cylinders.... you name it, I've sorted it for MOT! :D:D

All that and some more on my first Mini not long after buying it.
*Did* buy it for £180 tho!!
Eventually sold it a year later for £400 :D:D:D


Just watch the subframe for next year if you get it welded just now :)

[bpirie1000]

aye The Older ones Need More attention Right enough

Same as the Older cars..........

Saying nothing more...

Brave Not Stupid.....

[Duncan Stewart]

Well Done :approve: You obviously have a good solid one there :D

[broken_brian]

i would not like too even think what my mini would fail on as it has sat for just over a year now but it still starts though, hooked up the jumpleads and it fired up first time :D:D

[Craig]

I refer to Crombers comments in the previous Oxford run - nae mini, means no going :approve:

Good to know I've still got the talent for picking the rarer colours!! :D:D
Photo op sounds like giggle :D:D I'll let you know..
Then maybe I can come through (or you guys are welcome to pop through) for some more of the same when I've had a chance to put the wheels and other toys back on! :D:cool::cool:

[Craig]

sounds like a plan - you've got my number..;)
