The best thing about mini meets is sitting and chatting with mini friends :) The cars are not bad either ;)

Teaching ones ain't much fun either, and if you're lucky you get rewarded with a day long interview!

I'm no good at applications either. Not that I've done that many.

Lucky you, think it is the current graduate job market. Hundreds of applications with a high percentage of rejections.

didn't get to complete a service because they supplied the wrong air filter :( Then it turned out one of the new plugs was dead so had to fit an old one.

Cool, I'll see if one of my friends has it and get it from them. It's always annoying when the story writers for a show lose the plot a little and the show becomes crap

After speaking to a friend, I have started to wonder: Is it unsafe to use second hand wheels on my mini? Will they randomly break while driving?

old alloys can suffer from cracks. I personally would have any old alloys crack tested before use. Old steels should be ok just check for any excessive corrosion or wear where the wheel nuts locate.

Ok, that makes sense. Would a wheel shop be able to do a crack test? Like the people who do wheel balancing and refurbish wheels.
Dec 27 2014 07:30 PM -

Thing is I had to get two of the wheels refurbished and so I asked the people at a mag refurbishment place to check all four and they said they were fine.

A mini van for £200, not a chance in hell. Rotten shells are like a grand!

Cars down here are so much cheaper, but importing spares is where the costs lie. There is a 1970 van that was listed for R3500, which is 194 Pounds :)
