Put new mini door seal on , now door will not close, Why

    It because the seal is new and obviously at this point in its life harder to compress. You can move your B pillar catch slightly to take this into consideration. As the seal compresses with age you can then reposition the latch

    I just slammed mine shut (but mine weren't overly tight)

    Might be worth checking you have it pushed on correctly all the way round. I tried the door seal on my resto project and the door wouldn't shut. Turned out it wasn't fitted correctly at the front end of the door. It still needs a good slam but i'm sure it's just due to new rubbers that need settling in

A man walks into a zoo. The only animal in the entire zoo is a dog. It's a shih tzu.

    My neighbours don't seem to winge. I've used mine on the, 'private officer', road outside my house, but go to a local huge park to run them 'properly'. Elecric models are good for shutting up the winging neighbours, but so is gaffer tape. haha.

    Hence why I've now stuck with the electric ones even if they aren't as much fun as a nitro engine screaming its head off. Plus the other bouns is I don't need to drive 20 miles to the nearest model shop for fuel.
    But I have been on the look out for a tl01b roller as it shares a lot of parts and spares I already have, But even beatern up ones go fro stupid prices (probably bumped up)on eBay.

Mini covered just over 400 miles in a day (about 25 of them with the boot hanging open so if anyone finds a picnic basket on the M4, it's mine).

    Well due to the lack of picnic food, you clearly hadn't fed your right foot enough ;)

    I think the 2 lardy friends and me, plus the shedload of food I was carrying may have actually played a part. Poor Mini didn't know what had hit it.

Was such a shame to see so many minis broken down or being recovered last night but hell it made me realise how bloody well Violet drives. Another 11 hours of faultless driving.
