The mini is now effectively down to a shell. :( Let the money throwing begin.

I've spent well over 11k in getting the shell sorted, 1.8k on panels alone but i just argue the point that if i don't do it properly i will have to do it in a few years time.. at least this way it should last about 15 years before needing doing again

Rob Walker is on a small industrial estate at New Yatt near Witney, West Oxfordshire and came to my attention by recommendation. He's a busy bloke obviously as my engine's had two birthdays with him and when I last popped in he appeared to have lost my crankshaft! Granted, I first said my job wasn't needed quickly, but two and a half years, come on! Apparently he's good though.

Replaced Exhaust system with Maniflow exhaust as well as replacing other things. However, Mini has recently developed Misfire on Cylinder 3.

Sorry, forgot to update, we found out the problem was the head gasket, it had split between cylinders 3 and 4.

Just got rid of the annoying 'avast secure browser' which I did not want on my computer. When uninstalling it, it asked me why. My answer. 'because I use chrome like a normal person'
