Someone bumped into the back of the mini this morning! Fortunately no damaged but women didn't pull over :(

I had it before a long time ago now with another woman who was so aggressive and drove off as I jumped out to look. I've also had on many occasions people bump into my cars as I'm sitting in it while they park. Just either oblivious or don't care. I totally understand it happens, but people just don't stop. She knew exactly what she'd done and I pointed to pull over (we were in a bad place) and she just drove off.

Just discovered a nice scratch down my car, no note or anything. Going to cost me probably £100 to get it touched up. Some people can't drive...

People just dont give a crap these days - that or they dont have insurance!!! My daily is parked outside my house and I noticed last week that someone had hit my bumper and taken about 8 inches of paint off, no note nothing. Cant understand it - not like its hard to see, its Bright Red!!

It's almost as if people forget how to drive when it starts to rain... :\

There was a person in tiny Daihatsu, who was driving at 30 km/h along a road with no one in front of them... and then they decided to brake when they approached a turn, it was so frustrating.

You sure they were not just being cautious or not good in the rain. going around a corner in the wet, I would probably brake.

Perhaps. I suppose I should just accept it and go with the flow. Definitely would help.

Looking at a new car, take the Mini off the road for a bit of TLC and I like the look of a Golf...

Astra rad fan not working, so thought it might be a good idea to sort it out, given the temp ATM. :)

Grabbed a bargain today at the show £3 for a remote gear shift and gear stick

Fitted a KAD short shifter, can go from 1st to 2nd but not 3rd to 2nd, anyone have any idea why?

It's quite stiff
Jul 19 2016 09:53 PM -

I bet you have the same problem as me. The nylon ball on the end of the stick is too large for the fork in the gear selector. I spoken to KAD about it and they said that the size of the forks varies across the years of mini production. Their nylon balls are all tested for size using a GO / NO GO gauge, but the tolerance between that and fork will mean on minis that the lever is stiff to move.

Ah right, thanks for that, it's a bit of a pain how they're stiff because of that.
