went for a rather damp blast around in the mini today! - now to spend even longer drying, cleaning and polishing it! (how I love classic car ownership!) :D

Awesome stuff! :) The water should run off a lot more easily if you apply a generous layer of wax after cleaning and polishing.

Rear exhaust hanger snapped on the Astra. GRRR! Rope it is, until I get a replacement tomorrow in work.

Nope, never. I would like a mk2 cosworth though black on black. :)

Buying another r/c car atm, so might keep the astra for a while and concentrate on the mini more.

Hey that is not a bad thing. Minis love attention ;) Over here mk2 2 door escorts are relatively cheap.

Just went in the garage for the first time in a couple of weeks, to take a look at a leaky shower, and opened the door, and could not hep but stare at the mini whilst going from the back to the front of the garage. I really do miss driving 'her'. :(

Might buy a hedge trimmer for my hair cut on 14/15 August. I really could be turned over, and used as a, rather large, mop. :/

I remember when you could buy a vauxhall nova for sod all. The prices on ebay are just silly. :(

Noticed there's quite a few z20let engines going cheap on ebay for around £500. :/ The astra would go well with 200-250 ish BHP. :)

TurboMinis.co.uk is like a ghost town. Not one new post since yesterday. :(

Would it not be a good idea for all TMF members attending MITP to buy a CB radio. :) Talk to each other on the way down, up side to side lol.

I only asked because I went passed an old fella in an Austin Metro, but he looked like he still expected the road to be inhabited by Metro's, Maestros, and Montego', so I didn't wave!
