matt050990

Ah no I did think about camping but I heard the horror stories so thought it's best to avoid. Plus I'm a snob :)

Wiring in an extra cooling fan for L2B last year was the best thing I did. No way my car would've made it otherwise!

If you think top gear is the best thing the bbc has to offer I am seriously worried my friend

matt050990

What else is it the BBC has to offer? They have the occasional Match Of The Day on and that's about it.

Are there any parts of the car you're particularly worried about?

I know the hazard switch is very temperamental at best. The brakes aren't the sharpest of all but I think that's just because they are drums. I guess its just a chuck it in and see. MiniJosh92 is doing it for me so at least it someone who knows minis doing it.

Go on a holiday near a giant scrap yard. In the Mini. Kids don't need holidays to places like Disney World. It's all a big commercial con run by the devil tell them.

Our holidays are camping with the mini at mini shows so it's win win with us :0) pingu gets money all the time. Plus having a child with autism you just don't do real holidays as not worth it.

Ah now I feel like a mug. We are going to Disneyland in florid a in September. Going to be amazing seeing the kids faces there though.

Vic, my Bro has autism and funnily enough he didn't really like holidays.

Mine is supposedly 130 factory. But not sure on that now. I'll get it mapped and do a few little mods bit I bought it as a work car :)

I've known a few people with these card now and all of them have had more power than they expected. As i said earlier even tuning companies have found them to be more powerful than the quoted figures. My lad had his detuned back to standard when he bought it and that was the figure he got. No matter what they are a quick car and 170 brake and over 300 lbs ft if torque make these cars fly. The DMF though needs to be in good order.

Had a look at hermes but the biggest they do is 1.2m. The rear seats are 1.35m.

To be honest I've ordered quite a free things from Mini Sport over the years and they've always been spot on, quick delivery, quality products and the products that I need tend to be cheap. I've used other suppliers but sometimes Mini Sport have products (eg 1:3 Roller Rockers) that others don't stock or way out of my price range.

Minispares or Somerford :)
Plus with the TMF discount, and you can bug Simon on the forum too!
Feb 14 2015 08:06 PM

matt050990

Yeah I have bugged Simon a few times and is handy to have him on here. Just a shame they are normally more expensive unless your doing a big order then a decent discount.

I have zero creativity. So much so that someone else came up with the name for my car :P

Pingu

There Newton! That's what we getting but they are tad expensive
Jan 29 2015 01:33 PM

matt050990

Surely they can be made up from scratch? You can make any other styles but not these?

My frames aren't in top condition so can't swap them and don't fancy recovering myself!
Jan 29 2015 02:18 PM

I cant understand how they do it sometimes. They must print their own stamps :)
Jan 27 2015 01:44 PM
