edited to say my 1st car was a 1978 S mini 1000 in vermillion and i have always had a soft spot for the classic mini - cant wait to get another and relive my youth!

Welcome to TMF; nice motors, and it was good to meet you at the 'Ring!
It would be cool if you could get a Mini and come along with us next year, its going to be bigger and better! :grin:

Well as an ex scooby owner and soon to be (when I finally get it finished) bike engined mini owner I just thought I'd say hello :grin:
I'm sooooooo gutted not to have made it to the ring!! I really wanted to but unfortunatley with my mini not finished it wasn't really a goer! :nugget:
If you want any hints or tips about bike engined mini's there are a few threads in the project section that should get you of in the right direction. :grin:

Subaru's a ladies shopping cars!
seriously, every one I've seen is being driven by a vertically challenged female!
not to say I wouldn't like one for my missus though, I'd "borrow" it for the weekend and find a nice field somewhere!!

I have had a look through some of those threads and they are a bit scary in places!
The project will be kicking off in the next couple of years once i have saved up enough money and not before [I'm told] mrs pig has got her horse! Apparently i have spent more than my fair share on cars already
I am really excited about the thing though
Cheers

Yeah they are a bit of a good game to build but nothing can prepare you for the grin factor of a mini revving it's heart out at 12000rpm!!! :grin: Especially with sequential gears mmmmmmmm

possibly, but 1 horse costs more to run than the 570 in those two!Lol She may have a point though looking at your current selection of cars :grin:

cant wait to try a bike engined mini - testdrove a hyabusa engined westfield a few years back and that was savaged - loved the high revving and sequential box - thats where the idea stemmed from - a combo of this and reliving my first car thing
