hi guys how are ya?

i am a newbie to the site so heres a quick intro,

i am 18 and drive a mini mafair 1275 this is my second mini after an unfortunate accident in my first mini which saw me rolling 3 times and landing upside down in a field being looked at by a load of horses!! :thumbsup:

to say woops would be a slight understatement.

i will try and get pictures of my cars on asap.

I think a rollcage is about the most ugliest thing you can put in or on your car. But this makes me rethink one for my project. Looks pretty usefull when you are gonna roll it. Not that I plan to of course, but I don't think you were either.
