Haha, I don't think that is because of the water ;)

Pretty sad at the moment. Bodyshop made what feels like a massive error... :(

Oh yes, looks terrible. Glad it's being sorted

No, that's horrible! Glad it's getting sorted though.

Yeah. It's nice that most people in the mini community are such decent people.

Ask Sean if he hasn't got a set of wheel nuts for you that will work?
Aug 15 2015 08:40 AM -
Vinay-RS
Yeah, I'll send him a whatsapp message. Otherwise I guess he could bring some in with his next order.

Also I don't want to admit all the money I've spent on it so far haha.. when its done Ill show everyone :D (leaving out the total cost and amount of work hahaha)
Aug 07 2015 04:47 PM -
Vinay-RS
I've stopped counting the amount spent... it's just not good for the soul, plus with these cars it's about the love of the car, not the cost.

Complete failure of my driving lights last night... that was not too fun :\

Vinay-RS
That's under the central switch panel.

MiniNoobJhb
That is a relay V. It's probably been added by someone else as like you say the SA cars didn't have them. However if you get a new one of those just make sure it has the same ratings (take it as a sample) and it will be a straight swap.

Thanks Dom, I'll take to the midas down the road on Friday. Do you think I'll be able to get a standard old loom from an old 1275E?

I gave mini related technical advice to someone... and it wasn't wrong! I'm so proud of myself :D


Vinay-RS
Another awesome mini run today, got lost on the way, but it was still loads of fun :)



Vinay-RS
Got back yesterday and picked up my mini from my friend. Great feeling, just like seeing an old friend :)

NICE time to give it a nice wash
Jul 26 2015 09:15 AM -
Vinay-RS
Surprisingly it was spotless, not even a spec of dust! Though it was parked in a garage :)

Does anyone else feel worried when leaving their minis with a friend to store it/look after it while you're away?

-
JewSkii
well at least you know its going to be safe if your trust your friend

Deciding what to do next in life is proving to be harder than I would've thought

Vinay-RS
Yeah the idea of a gap period where people just laze around all day doesn't sound too good. I'd love to take a month and travel around this amazing country and not have to worry about work or money... will require some saving :P What are your plans for your "gap months"?
Jul 02 2015 11:56 AM -
MiniNoobJhb
Well they won't really be gap months as I'll be going to work on a daily basis but I'll have some free weekends again. Which I plan to finish the mini, go to CPT for some long street clubbing and some wine tasting (I enjoy my red wines), if I can save enough I would like to go visit the USA and if all goes well complete an Ironman triathlon.

If you make your way to cape town, you should let us know - we can organise a meet of sorts (or come down at the end of a month as that is when we meet). Good luck if you take on ironman. I have a friend who has done it for the past 3 years, it seems really epic. Also when down in CT, make sure to visit the motor museum. Well worth it for petrol heads like us.

I wish I had chosen to use Microsoft Word when LaTeX code fails to compile after a day of editing my document

Started cycling, since fuel is so expensive, hopefully going to save some cash and get exercise at the same time.

Vinay-RS
That could quite easily be taken out of context :P
