    The VAG 2.0 TSI has to be up there as one of the best engines ever produced.

    Its the 25th Anniversary thats tempting me, insurance is cheaper on that than a vmax full works kit for the Min, hmm... :)

Do I make a set of banded steels for the winter or save and design some splits next year? Hmm... (can you tell i'm trying to avoid uni work lol)

    Im thinking of designing d1 style splits,6" wide, but that'd mean wider arches, sort of going against my orignal concept.
    Dayglo orange 5.5" steels with chrome hubcaps however might go with the dayglo grille im doing? but will ultra heavy.... im rubbish at decisions lol

    I resisted the german car influence. Coming back from the ring last year, I thought the mini has got to go..and buy a golf and make that into a track car.. but now after this year, I thought the mini went well, and im happy with her :D

    I thrashed the Mini last weekend, and with only the 80 or so horses its got, it's still pretty nippy. It's sort of gone from my daily, to mine and my Dads toy, and I could really do with a decent daily that will last, that reflex silver one looks awesome, shame its not nearer aha :)

    80 horses in a mini, is enough to get you into trouble lol.

    Do what I'm doing, Twin Cam BMW head conversion! Then you can tell me what mistakes you've made and stop me doing the same :) Teamwork!

    Insurance is reasonable on the 25th Gti too, hmm...
    I really fancy twin 40's on a 7port though, the deciding factor really is if my current cam is too tame for it, decisions decisions aha :)

    Cheers! yeah mine changes from blue to grey depending on the light, metallic grey Minis are rare, and imo very interesting, yukon grey/ smoke /tweed look nice, but are pretty common atm :)
