Black plates on my 1990 mini? Do I worry about the police if I did it?

    I drive with them on mine, got no hassle so far. I don't worry about the police at all.

    Just make sure that your brakes will work with 10" wheels

So got a phone call today about an Apprenticeship with Nagel Langdons, I was told that out of 6 candidates myself and someone else are their favourites and I should hopefully be invited to do some tester days to see how I do and then fingers crossed I will get it! So exciting!

    I am a hgv mechanic and we are always struggling to find apprentice's maybe look into hgv as another option I have been doing it 12 years and love it after originally wanting to do cars

Don't know whether to keep the centre console or not, trying to go with a mk1 look and I only use the centre console for my radio. Don't know whether it's worth using the old radio housing for the radio and have no centre console.
