Yes the Almond Green is staying and after a chat with the Mrs, most likely the 850 engine as well now.

We have 3 mini's and one has to go when this is on the road and as this will most likely become her daily driver. So either Hippo will continue to be my daily or the Brown Bomb will. Which ever one I get it will have 100+ bhp

I'd have to fit an 850 engine before you could borrow it though :)

Very nice work there! Are you keeping the remote gear change or going back to a "magic wand" - for that extra period feel?

Cool - and the added bonus of somewhere to hang your (or rather ones..) handbag!
