Haha, that will take a lot more saving ;) It is definitely on the list though.

I've never driven a mini on discs, I might ask Abri or Andrew if I can have a go, just to feel how much better they are than drums.

Finally got around to taking him in to get the stripes sorted out. At the same time I also got the boot and tank sprayed which was a nice little detail to get sorted.

Quite happy with the result.

Thanks Jay. Yeah I'm still slightly worried about doing that because we don't exactly have the best roads in CT.

Just a little bit ;)

I guess that's an option. It'd be cool to get that low Japanese stance, though I don't think that'd be an option on our roads.

Amazing what a bit of work can do. Nice one on closing the speaker holes.

Thanks Jared. It does look so much better, especially as I had no plans to fit massive 6x9s onto it.

Haha yeah it does move. Might actually be a good idea to tie it down somehow. I was actually just looking for a storage container for some road spares (jumper leads, car jack, oil, coolant, cable ties, insulation tape, etc) and they fitted perfectly into that little basket.
