Yay. I filled mine with v power. It seemed to run better on v power, but maybee that's because it was set-up with that particular petrol.

Mine is only a standard 1275 SPi, but I have always used V-Power fuel. I don't do that many miles to worry about the cost, and it puts my mind at rest that it's decent petrol going through my car. Only other fuel I've used since passing my test was Tesco Momentum 99 but that was only because a Shell branch wasn't closeby! (I didn't notice a difference though)

At one point I was only doing 6 miles per day, to work and back, so only needed to fill up every week or week and a half. :) I travel around 6 miles to work now, and find the traffic annoying. I would rather work closer to home to be honest.

I'm very aware of it. I've already informed ebay, paypal and my courier of the situation so if the item arrives "damaged", they should treat it with suspicion.

You haven't sent it yet? Just refund it is so easy, sell it to someone else.

R1 mini its been sent. I know its a risk but I have beaten people like this before and on many occasions unfortunately. Postage had been sorted out before the buyer messaged me which was why I refused the refund and the change in postage method.

It's recently had a lot of work done. I'm not looking for a show car, just a daily driver.

That car's certainly been changed a bit from standard - early 80s Mayfair interior, late Cooper wheels (possibly brakes too) and an 80s Metro lump. I am not convinced that that colour was a '79 shade either (could've been resprayed). If it's originality you want, then it's not the car for you! As stated above though, the missing tag could just be something that's gone missing over the years. It's worth a look as you're not too far away - if there's anyt...

...anything you're not sure about, walk away. It does look a bit expensive for what it is though.

MINI WILL

Thanks I went and had a quick look and it’s got rust in nearly all of the panels - around the roof in the rear quarters by the radius arms, bonnet, A panel, boot hinge panel, so the search will go on thanks for your help much appreciated

Ac Dodd for the block work, around 130 for next size up, and cam bearings, he'll need your pistons. He can also get your crank ground but longer lead time

8.4" but the parts I have are the same for both, you need some other stuff for drums.
