Mini looks great. Glad to see you modified the lower grill/bumper to fit it properly. I see so many on the Mini forums where they just fit them hanging out.

I trimmed all the way around the grill on mine so I didn't have to touch the bumper. Alot of the Mini owners class a highly modified Mini as one covered in ****e stickers so doubt they would go cutting parts up lol! A set of face lift Xenon headlights and facelift rear lights will make a nice upgrade with the mods you are doing.

Do you know roughy how many miles you are getting from a tank in it.

The engines are surprisingly easy to work on. Serious jobs need the front of the car taking off but it uses a modular front end so it just unbolts with the radiator etc still attached exposing the front of the engine.

The exhaust should be fairly simple but you might need to ditch the spare wheel. If the exhaust is from a pre 2005 car it will be okay. late 2004 onwards cars used different hangers.

Springs bring them down a little but looking at your previous cars I think you will end up on coilovers soon lol

The old ones are very cool but over the past year or so iv realised that it was a good thing it moved onto a new one. Although i wouldnt mind a classic one with a vtec engine in for a laugh lol

Im loving working in the garage, apart from needing to paint the bottom of the walls with a more waterproof or better paint it's all good (i knew it was going to show anyway).

i learnt to spanner things when i was in my early teens cos my sister bought a 1973 850 mini... and it promptly fell apart..

old mini's are in no way safe in a crash, but in their day they were great fun to drive, but issigonis really got the rust traps right on this design...why do you see more moggie minors than minis??

as for the garage wall paint.. if damp is coming out, don't try to stop it, or the wall will fail.. decent masonry paints breathe.
