Even though I have one I would say get another classic. Going to sell mine in near future and bit a classic clubman.

3 floor pans one on top of the other? The POs of my Mini were damned lazy... Luckily the rot hasnt spread.

How many sill panels?

Just the one! The most recent PO was actually a really good welder and did a proper job replacing the sills. This repair seems to be the work of one of other 11 POs!

That's an expensive way to fix the problem, suppose they were cheaper years ago

Some D-head last night smashed the ns rear light on my peugeot, looks like it was done with a screwdriver. I just dont understand

Aw, that's terrible. Why do people do these things ..? No damage to the bodywork?

No other damage has been done, but they've hit it so hard that its gone through the lense and through the casing

Road trip to castle coombe in the mini tomorrow, then driving it round castle coombe, just wondering what to take with you when you go long distance in a mini, what do you take tools, fluids etc wise?

A spare mini?

Took everything you said and more. Spent 12 hours pretty much in the mini today, ran fine for an hour and forty there, drove fine at Castle Combe but on the way home the engine kept spluttering under load, suspect an electrical issue, had to call the aa and keep stopping to cool the engine but got home eventually. I wish I had taken a spare mini now.

Oh well, I was pretty impressed at how long it lasted without a hitch at 80mph.

If it's less comfortable than your house, it's not a holiday

Yay! Sold the extra car in the driveway with a minimum of tire kickers, complainers, and emails offering 70% below the asking price!

Just walked past two young girls - about 9 - showing off their twerking skills to some other girls/boys. They looked so wrong, wrong, wrong

3 years ago I taught at a school in a really rough part of town. Shocker on the playground to hear grade 2 girls (about 8 years old) calling out "Let's play Jersey Shore! I'll be Snookie!"

I don't even want to know what Jersey Shore is...too scared to Google it!

I was expecting around £2500 if I was lucky, looking at the market. the body work is good but the floor pans are patchy so wouldn't expect more
