No then. I thought you was talking about the 1/10 scale models. :/

IIRC they were made by Nikko and came in a little plastic container. Like this but this is a Bini and far too expensive ;-)

That's part of the problem with gp's and back pain, unless you fit into a certain age group or its so bad you can't move, they don't really give a ****.
All I keep getting from mine is people under 30 don't suffer from 'back problems' and is just a muscle weakness, but then that doesn't explain the massive bruising (even from just walking) and pins/needles/numbness in my left leg/foot.

Agree entirely with above. Even if they find something operable, then they rarely want to do any surgery unless you are literally screaming in pain 24/7 and unable to function. Up here (in Scotland) they have actually separated out back pain and its treatment to a 'Back pain pathway' system where you self register with physio and go through the system. The GP takes little to do with the case personally

I guess hosing the underside and arches down after each run could help?

IMO after every run is a bit excessive, and the water will rust the car. :/ I think underseal would help protect the body more.

my dad wants his driveway back, and i had an accident recently so am unable to work on it for quite a while :( this isnt the end tho, i will get another

You posted a topic on your accident not too long ago. :( Good luck with the sale, and make sure you buy another. I've driven many cars, and not one compares to driving a mini. I'm currently driving an old mk3 astra estate, as a daily driver, and miss driving the mini so much.

I'm an electric bass and double bass player.

@new game - aha it's easy done for sure! haha and city Pete, nice! I have a go at bass when needed, but really I play guitar, piano and the drums... looking for a new instrument to pick up, maybe might look into the Bass, I guess it would be easier to get into as I play guitar already?

CityEPete

Yes I'd say so, I play guitar badly. Trying to not play bass like a guitar is the skill, listening to lots of classic bass lines will get your head in the zone.

Bought two cuddly toys (spoiling my kids again). Many people were "moved" out of the way and it was 2pm during a week day so the freaks smelling candles and buying odd size mattresses was minimised.
