A mate of mine had a mental Yellow mini pick-up back in about 94. We used to go mountain biking in it (wasnt even good enough for 2 MTB's). This was back in the day of 'on a mission' stickers. It was a right nail, cool though.

If I remember rightly vtecing the mini involves extending the front end?
1.6 E16SE would be the way forward.... cheap as chips.

C16SE ftw. No AFM which believe it or not does make a difference in a Mini (space wise).

Rayond... my brother has a hydraulic suspension kit and a full magic body kit in the garage.

He no longer has a mini.
