    HIF44. Twins for show really. I've had both. HIF44 will make almost the same power but will cost half as much.

    They may regret it if they suffer whip lash neck injuries in even a minor rear end shunt.....

    It's often occurred to me that the headrests on 1980s Minis are so low down (and non-adjustable) that they'd be practically useless at preventing whiplash on anyone over 5'9". They come up to shoulder height on me. I still don't understand why anyone would remove them though, they might just be better than nothing (and they certainly don't inhibit visibility).
