Yeah, 2nd no good and, in 3rd it just feel awkward to keep it steady and not knock the engine about. Felt like a p****d kangaroo earlier.

Mine is alright with 4th just, but 3rd is preferred especially when I want to accelerate after the 30 zone

You all need to get yourselves an 850! 30mph is a nice steady speed then.

Bummer - took my daily to the local F1 autocentre and the guy offered me 2 nearly new Yokos for my Mini, the bummer? They were 13 inch and my wheels I are 12s :-(

Just received a new gas bottle, started to weld and the wire feed packed up, now it only clicks
Jul 22 2014 12:55 PM -

The click is probably the gas valve solenoid, maybe the transformer is fried. Spend some good money on a portamig! Awesome bit o kit!

Footman James actually worked out really cheap to insure the mini with....

Last time I insured a mini I did it on a multicar policy. It was cheaper to insure two cars together than either the mini or my astra by itself. Something you should possibly look into as you own another car. How's the turbo engine build going?

Combination of 5 valve head, faulty piston and potentially the little end being too tight and getting too hot

Before buying one I would suggest you go test drive a Suzuki swift as well.
