    RS Recaro's are the best, makes the driving position so much nicer.

    Aye theyre lovely seats, very comfortable and really do hold you in. Problem is getting some Mini frames for em now. Assuming i cant just fit some standard mini seat frames no? Haha these are another to my many bargains I seem to find when im on ebay. I just messaged the seller after they didnt meet his reserve price and he happened to live within 40 miles of me.

Hate the roads around where I live sometimes, Stupid log sticking out of the bank pretty much invisible in the dark and caught my wheel arch, cracking it :(

    If it's only the plastic arch, maybe you were lucky! But the roads around there in the summer must be pretty good!

    Yup, just the plastic arch, slight dent under the indicator too but barely noticeable. I guess I needed an excuse to buy a set of new arches anyway, the old ones were horrible!

Accidently found out what my christmas present is from my parents : ( Got home from work and found it on our doorstep covered in stickers from the company who sent it. It even has a warning sticker on it which helps confirm my suspicions.

    So stop dribbling and pass the ball... guessing mini company related

    No. RC plane related. The warning sticker says 'CAUTION. Contains lithium polymer batteries'. I asked for a set of lipo's for the new plane I am building so I am guessing its them.

seeing as I can't work on the mini next best thing is to wade through the hundreds of restoration photos and create a photobook! Bringing back some memories....

    guessing insurance is being the usual bastard?

    yeah! The other person was too far over coming around a blind bend and because there are no white lines its tit for tat. I had a witness but my insurance won't accept it because she didn't see the initial accident! Stu-pid.

Realy Realy p***ed off now, Compleatly fallen out with both mini and more so with the garage. 1 and a half months into a medium size job that should take 4 days I called in to see the g*t sat reading a paper, i ask him "hows my mini going" he replys with "We may start work on it later on in the week"..... so thats 1 and a half months of doing nothing. So ive been scrounging lifts and having hell trying to get about, turning down days and nights out and he has just been wasting...
