I've been doing some long needed servicing and repair:
Oil change / filter
Tappets
HT Leads / points / condenser / spark plugs
Brake pads / shoes
Ball joints & Wheel bearings (mine were worn)
Tie rod bushes & Shocks (mine were absolutely knackered!)
Repaired broken front window channels and replaced leaky fuel tank and hoses....
Phew... seems like quite a bit now!
Done about half of list and will crack on this weeke...

I bought one not long ago. Can't remember how long it took, but I was happy with the service. This reminds me I must fit it soon..

Not sure whether or not to frame my degree. Prepping Stitch for paint once we've cut out what we need to for his Kseries conversion!

Oil cooler and sump guard fitted in good time for the Weymouth>Exmouth run today. I love it when the Mini feels this good.

Getting there! Arches, speakers and tyres main buys left now. He is being prepped for paint and then can get his custom airbrushing done. Hoping that Himley in January will be his first show!!

I've been pretty much every colour and been told I'm a lucky cow that I can pull them all off. Biting the bullet and changing it. I can always change it back! Noah... my thoughts exactly!! Vini mate... if not fussed you can shove off! I so quite love the people on TMF who always keep being cool with me :-)

Had mine over a year, very good, welds look a bit cheap though, but good quality.
