I LOVE BOB AGAIN!!! Got him back after a long time, many hours of work and many replaced and uprated parts..... amazing. Ran spot on, handled amazingly and looks stunning. Ive been so close to selling up, but with this weather and him finaly behaving, almost makes the stress of the thing worth it.

FFS WHY CANT BRITAIN MAKE A DECENT CAR!! The mini still in the garage now due to an alarm issue. So i wast going to be able to go to thorsby car show. My dad offers his TVR Cerbera, so spent 2 days detailing it to perfection... And the throttle body snapped on start up this morning...... WHY!!!

Bad news, had a crash in my mini. On a road I drive every day, doing 35/40 ish (2,000 rpm in 3rd) turn a gentle bend to find a chaved up old van in the middle of the road. I swerve to avoid it. Swerve up into the grass and rock bank, once up onto it i spot a large boulder, swerve again, lock up the rear wheels and spin into the wall front first. Destroyed the bumper and grille and spots, pushed hard on the front panel, bent some of it around on the seam where the bumper is, and pushed all the...
