Thanks guys, I have an advisory and next to it is 'borderline' I just wondered what this meant

The advisory is corrosion near subframe Mount but I can't see it myself to be honest that's why I'm wondering if it means very early stages

Ben, are you trying to tell us something?....
Did you forget to take precautions! ....& will you still be able to work on Minis during your second trimester?

i guess its as the saying goes, someone is only going to pay what they want to pay. I didn't even have it offered for sale which is the funniest thing

Still can't believe how much the brakes have improved since taking the FAM7821 out of the system.

It's time to accept that old cars don't work as a daily driver, especially if it's your only car.

Mini Manannán
I disagree, my mini's my only car, commutes every day. Have to agree that it's a fair bit of maintenance though!
Sep 24 2018 05:19 PM -
Vinay-RS
I think that's important. If the Mini was restored to a high standard and the weekly/monthly checks are done, it will be fine.
My problem was I didn't do part 1, the car was never decommissioned and given a full resto, so sometimes parts seem to fail in succession, making me rather disheartened.
Sep 24 2018 05:53 PM -
Vinay-RS
That said, as stated above, it's such a fun daily driver and it's getting easier to fix things when they break... for now.
