Why are silver cars so popular? You can't get a decent shine on them.

Just fitted some Alfa GTV rear bucket style seats in my mini. Looks great and they only cost 99p off Ebay so not complaining at all!

Maybe I was exaggerating a tad. I'll rephrase by saying the inlet valve on cylinder 4 had about minus 8-10mm valve clearance so the valve remained always open meaning no compression in that cylinder! DOH! Guess I should have bought a compression tester sooner! This caused all sorts of issues whilst trying to tune my twin hs2's!

That's just the way it is i'm afraid. I have encountered LOADS! Sold a laptop and the woman sent me a message over a year later asking for a refund because it stopped working

Decided to go and get some cider from Tesco in the Mini, came out the shop to find a white Mini pulling up near it. Out steps a rather pretty girl, turns out she's around my age ;)

I did have a little chat and she said she'll have a look on here and she might go to Minifest
