They charged £350 for an emergency (7:30 on a Wednesday night) apt to put a new stitch in my dog after it came out. She was only in there 20 mins.

no thats just for them to weigh them and make sure their hearts sound ok - no treatment!
I can understand the emergency vet fee (ive had loads of them) as they dont get many people in after house and need to cover costs etc - still expensive!

Spending over a year with someone, and they don't even have the (female) ******* to speak to you, when you've been feeling down and **** about things. Just don't get it, at all.

Unfortunately the revs are still sticking high when it's driving. Really dont know what to check next.
Think this weekend it's time to get my head out of the fire, put on my Downton overalls and work on getting both Minis running :)
Have neglected them both the past 6+ months and it's time to change.

Part of me says just use the mini, dont bother with the bucket seats or harnesses and make it a comfy daily.
Mar 11 2014 06:13 PM -

Or I could go for that MR2 that I keep going back to, or spend that money on the mini. aghhh

depends on how far you've got to drive :)

might be a stupid question but if i convert from 12/6 wheels to 10/6 wheels should i expect a bigger arch gap or a drop in ride height? or would all off this just be effected by what tyres i get? thanks

-
robminibcy
wouldnt make a lot of differance to arch gap or ride height as the tyre sidewalls are bigger on 10s

Rolling radius is similar, arch gap will depend of the offset of the wheels used
