Do I buy some gunmetal 12x5's, or wait and buy 10''s and a 4 pot brake setup...

    Right, the plan was for 10x5's on Yoko's with little if any drop, and possibly replace the cones with Springs

    long flat head screwdriver, and brute force does the trick for me

    When the haynes said it was 'somewhat unaccesible' they weren't lying!

    I e always managed to squeeze my arm in to pull it off. Removing the two nuts at the top and removing the upper hose makes it easier

Evidently the bodge fairies have been round for a visit, as my wrist found out when it travelled through my scuttle panel earlier >.<

    WOW. I would like to see some photos of that :(. Was it hidden filler or just really badly welded on?

    No idea. We've packed it full of fibreglass for now, what can't be seen and all that... But I'd like to take the car off the road soon for a rebuild so I can put a new scuttle pannel in then.

    The ballache is, I passed my test in may and havent been able to drive it yet, doubt I will until its re-built now. At least it'll be in much nicer condition...

No worse feeling than having a mini, having a driving license but not having insurance to drive it :(
