:wales:
Hi as you can guess Im a newbie......not mini wise though. My first car was a Mayfair....I left the mini world....when I moved on to get an Mg B GT. Great car, but not a patch on the mini.....so i'm back with a '78 Clubby.........needs some work, but will be great fun! Got a 1275cc MG lump in it...........which reminds me I must get those drum brakes replaced! hahahahahaha.
I'm originally from llangefni in North wales, but now live in the small anglesey village of Bryngwran....i can be seen scooting about on the A55 in Mimi (yes sad I know!) and around Caernarfon where I work.
So if you see a black delapidated clubby ripping up the road with a decidedly 'unsilenced' note chances are your probably looking right at me!

Welcome to the site!

I was made in Chester so not far from you.

There are other guys on the forum from North Wales perhaps youve seen them about. :(

Do you have a pic of your mini?

Needs some considerable amount of work doing to it....but I guess thats half the joy.......! looking like a wreck also gives it that extra smug factor when you leave some Corsa modified 'egg boxes' standing at the traffic lights too! Thanks for the welcome. My first mini, after years of hard work ended up looking very much like yours.....until (at a wreckless age of 17) I sent it hurtling into a wall......on a streight piece of road.....yes I know don't say it! Ive calmed down a bit since those years.........just abit :(
