    The mini! Yoko A048-R; too ocd to have mismatched tyres! Plus others would be a slightly different size.

Looking for a new mini. The term 'Barn Find' seems to be the new term for 'Has been sat in garden rotting'

    Had a guy pm me about a project I have - he signed onto the forum that day and was fishing for locations. Beware !! There should be somewhere on the forum that we can log their userid's (by the way he was logged as stoneb09)

    Agreed. I'm fortunate to be able to keep mine in a garage, a friend had his pinched a few years back, they removed the rear window and claimed in that way to open the doors and hotwire it. Seems like a lot of work but its could to know some thieves are considerate enough not to damage the property they steal

    You know if you kill a dog you can go to jail but if you kill a cat you can't be prosecuted. Is the mini okay?
