Yea, same here... I'm using a back-up car to get to work etc... It's when you start picking holes in it (Hopefully not literally XD ) things get frustrating

Exactly, I have had it for 4 years, it's had 3 stages/ types of engine, it's been painted twice, had 3 different suspension set ups god knows how many times I have modded different things and its all been done either over the weekend or on the night where I have needed it for the next day, so it's all been planned out and then rushed to be finished, now thou it's been done properlyish lol and i think if anything would be to go wrong it would be sole destroying. I have missed...

Yes, well pleased with it! It's really clean and totally origonal, it's a little guttless but all the restrictors are still fitted.

I'll look them up, I tried phoning Tom's school of motoring for a CBT but no one answered.

Thanks :D

Yeah I tried Toms more than once and got the same, doing the CBT is easy it takes around 4ish hours he will walk you around the bike and then take you out around Tewkesbury for a little ride, he's a sound guy makes the whole experience fun.

Lol yep they sure are a scam! They try to charge you for anything. One company tried quoting me £5000! They said my car has been modified by having sports pack arches... I don't see why arches would affect the quote..

Cheers, With insurance companies they want everything to be original which is pretty impossible for most minis :P

Use distilled or RO water and it wont leave smears behind :) No need for the detergent stuff.
