Slid down the road sideways after getting a tank slapper and the back passenger corner hit the bank on the entrance way to a field at a funny angle. Despite the pictures I took looking really bad the roll over was really slow. I had time to brace myself when I realised I was going over and then think, "ahh damm, that's going to be a right off" as it landed on the roof and then "stop, stop, stop" when I realised it was going over onto my side.

First rebuild slowly coming along, engine out and stripped down to the short motor...measuring begins, thanks everyone for their guidance so far

subframe mounts done, another thing to tick off the list, just wish the timing cover seal would turn up so I can get the engine back in and finish it.

The smile on someones face when they've never been in a mini before is quite nice as well.

gap in the seal round rear screen where the 2 ends meet? Small bit of silicone sealant to fix maybe?

Put some screen sealer around it, better than silicone as it doesnt set

i have a B&Q angle grinder which ive had for the last 5 years and hasnt done me wrong yet cost £15 haha

Don't get me wrong, I love snap on and I know it's overpriced but your paying for the fact that if you tools break or become faulty you get it repaired or replaced. It was a fantastic piece of engineering and I probably would buy one if it was like half the price , even then I'd think I was expensive !!
Ps my b&q one I have at home is just approaching its 5th anniversary !

I like the fact it's only the Beetle and the Mini that you know are coming without looking round.
