How was it? Was going to go but the lure of a takeaway and bottle of red was too strong!

Haha, fair enough!
It was good! Five minis there but with the promise of more to join, so the club is looking promising! There will definitely be more meet ups and everyone is hoping to do a couple of shows together so pop along to one if you can :) Seems to be the start of a fun and friendly group.

Yeah, if they said it wasn't blue it's their problem in my opinion.

You cant buy happiness... But you can buy a bacon sandwich, and thats pretty much the same thing.

Finally got one side on my new suspension fitted. Got a rather lopsided car until tomorrow.

Someone recommended that I watch a show called Peaky Blinders. Is it any good?

I found it difficult to remove the smell entirely. What are you trying to achieve?

No.
It bloody stinks, and will do for ages, and stuff sticks to it. Enamel will protect the floor well enough unless its consistently full of water, which it shouldnt be!

Just got a load left over, and with places such as foot wells where water can sometimes get in thought it might be a good idea.

Finding some awesome bargains for my Mini. Hopefully i can get a drive in it sooner rather than later! Actually excited for my first drive in a mini.

-
Vinay-RS
Yeah apparently the ride is super rough on our pot-holed roads with 13" wheels. I'd stick with 10" wheels, also drums do a decent job of stopping the car. Of course not too ideal for track days.

MiniNoobJhb
I don't ever plan on doing a track day. At least not in this mini. So i should be good for now then.

I don't want to break things on a track either. This mini is driven only ever to get to campus and back.

Typical, as soon as my lunch break begins, it starts chucking it down outside -.-

Getting excited - This time next week, me and Mabel the Mini will be at the IOM TT, i'm between bikes at the moment, but figure that a classic mini will be 'cool' enough to take to a bike event, after all, she may not be as quick, but she is nearly as dangerous in an accident :-)

Wow - Excellent, they all do really good work over there! I think she'll spend most of the week parked up, if I take her round the course I'll come back with a collection of bikers stuck to the back :-)
May 29 2015 01:25 PM -
BronkoMini
Haha that's the problem if you take a car round the course!
