    I made mine too, cost less than £20 in materials but took at least 15 hours

    My dad's a carpenter but I reckon my attempts at covering would look awful and I don't know where to buy the material from!

On thursday MiniSport rang to tell me my parcel would be here Friday or Sat at the latest - what good service I thought, until it didn't turn up at all...

    At the bottom of this page it does say "Please see our other article for details of our opening hours over Christmas and the New Year." and you can click the "article" part, but it just goes back to that page. http://www.minispares.com/Articles.aspx?ty=ad&aid=605 Not sure whether it's just my internet browser.

    Ah that's annoying, my mini won't run until I get the new parts, I'll be heading back to Uni soon - I'll hardly get time to enjoy my new mini :(

    If my motorbike wasn't in the garage I could just about get the whole mini in, but with my bike at the end of the garage I can just get the nose + half the door in but it's a bugger to get in/out of!

the amount of steam from under my bonnet makes the mini look like it's straight from a horror movie

    I'd just love to get it running again, that way I can use it as a rolling restoration, don't mind having no dashboard or much interior, just wish it bloody ran without steam!

Managed to drop a wire carrying a permanent live on to the gear stick, sparked and no longer works - but fuses appear fine! >.< DAMN BUTTERFINGERS.
