Minispares adjustable rear camber brackets any good? :/ I will also be buying some longer track rod ends, as it appears to be required.

Yes that's right. I'm fitting adjustable bottom arms and tie rods. :) I will do the back when I get the car set-up.

I have them installed on mine, had no issues so far. KAD will be better but more expensive. Depends on your needs.

What I'll do is try and fit some parts to the mini, then put it back in the garage so I can order some more parts, so I can to fit the parts I was fitting in the first place. GRRR! :(

Well after my first week at my new work (Start of a 4 year apprenticeship as a coachbuilder) it would seem I have the same level of capacity as an end of third year apprentice, less the experience at panel beating of course, but he said I should be as good at that as the last apprentice in about a month... maybe I could do the final exam in two months?!... joking of course, loving the work as I get to drive all sorts of cars like RS7's and AMG's.

Anyone close to Rainhill, Merseyside got a spare seat for MITP? Don't fancy driving all that way, on my own, in the Astra. :/
