I have a tracker so that wouldn't help anyway :P then quoted me £2000 to increase it by 3000 miles! That's more than my policy was in the first place! I guess its down to my age really

I'm 17 lol first time driver! Odd that it was only £20 for me? To take it from 10k miles to 12k miles.

I think its because mine was a low mileage policy in the first place :/
Got a quote through Diamond of £1350 for 15,000 miles, exhaust declared, interior bits declared and wheels declared! Not bad!

Good day racing at Hethel test track, saw a blue racing mini! However had to stop after 2nd timed runs due to bad pinking, understandable for full throttle for 20 seconds at 6k in fourth!

Nothing wrong with the BMW minis!

yeah what's the problem with BINIs- Rover design, and built in Oxford, French engine. Only German connection is that they are owned by BMW. Therefore a Landrover is Indian, and an Aston Martin is American. Hence why I hate stickers in rough minis saying "100% BMW free"...

Me and my dad race in the championship. Me in my Red Vixen, him in his Blue one. Occasionally we double drive each others cars.

My dad and I were considering entering the sprint championship the other year, but it was too expensive when we wouldn't have been able to do many races (and my Dads a tight git, :D), so we decided to do a few trackdays instead, :D

Fuel filter changed, to see if it fixed my hesitation problem when cold, jeeeze the old one was gummed up!

I found that the diesel car would stall in slow moving traffic or whenever the revs were low. Changed the filter and it was much better.

Mine was incredibly hesitant when cold however once it had warmed up and was off choke, it ran perfect. Very strange

Check for a mini's mot: Wheels on? Check Brakes working? Mostly Lights working? Depend on the day Wipers working? Depends how heavy the rain is Oil leak sorted? It's a mini isn't it? Rust? The oil leak will protect it. Will it start? Depends how well you treated it
