I've noticed a lot of Minis have sound deadening on the bottom on the bonnet, how good is this?

Amazing day on the 75th Anniversary Battle of Britain Mini Run. 28 Classics touring the WW2 bunkers and then pelting through London getting loads of toots and waves, and down to the memorial at Dover. Really, really great day and raised £6.5k for charity! Well done if you were on it. We all finished and no breakdowns in the heat! Will post some pics when I've sorted them :-)

It was, and they were a really nice bunch that took part. The memorial at Dover was so moving. Everyone should watch the film and think about what the Battle of Britain pilots did for this country. True heroes.

Crashed the mini, and will be a write off. Claim on insurance (i'm 18) and lose my years no claims, or get a loan to fix it and buy a cheap run around until fixed?

Don't claim on your insurance, because you're only 18 the premium next year will go through the roof

You do know that you gave to declare all accidents to your insurance whether you claim or not - right? If the car has been collected and taken to a yard I'm pretty sure it will be logged.

Nobody else was involved, happened late at night and got it taken away by a friend the next morning. Going with the loan if the bank will let me!

The TMF clown has struck again! :( I bought a Maniflow 1.75 single box pipe for a centre exit exhaust, mine is a side exit exhaust. I bought it at Stanford Hall, so no chance of exchanging, or getting a refund. :( GRRR!

How much does Maniflow charge to post exhausts?

Can you modify the part you've bought? Is the only difference that one has a bend at the end?
Sep 19 2015 05:32 PM -
Anthony30
Yep. It's £23.99 inc VAT for the correct pipe from maniflow, so not really worth the hassle to be honest. The side exit pipe is also slightly longer. Even when you add the part to 'my basket', it only comes up with the part price. What a PITA!
