Hi everyone,

I'm on my 4th mini now. Had a canary yellow D reg Mayfair. Then a B reg City E in Primula yellow. Next was a Tahiti blue Cooper replica on an F plate.

I've 2 years away from them and now I have another. Its a Y reg City E in metalic bright orange (Had a respray, it was originally brown)

Its in need of loads of restoration, both rear inner arches, rear valence, inner sills ball joints etc etc etc.

My plans are to have a striped out 2 seater with full roll cage, 1400 or 1430 engine 7 x 13 superlights.

I currently have a Golf VR6 and a Punto GT, both of which will be making way for the Mini project. I'll get some photos up soon (When I get back from Holiday and find my USB cable) and i'll keep you all informed on my progress

Please let me know what you think and any problems I might come across

I'm sure if I have any problems someone on here be able to help me out!!

Cheers guys

Chris
