Just kinda stumbled across this site, I had a quick look around and liked it, so I signed up!
I have a 1987 Mini Advantage called Turk! It's the second Mini I have owned, the first being a 1983 Mini Spite.
Here are afew pictures of Turk!
I bought him off ebay for £700 afew months ago with 12 months MOT!! All the usual suspect pannels are rot free and very, very solid! There is a 1275 MG Metro engine up front and front disc brakes.
I will be adding bits and bobs when i've got the money and time but for now i'm really pleased!!! :grin:

What a find! Looks like you've got yourself a great mini there mate!
so have you got any major specific plans for her then? :erm:
Cheers!
So far the only plans i've got is a Stage 1 Kit (birthday october 2nd!!)
In the future however..........well who knows, but I want some group 2 arches and 10's on all four corners.
Then the list is endless really........suspention, re-spray, more engine mods.....
It's all money, money, money though so abit at a time starting with that stage 1 kit
:tongue:

can i recommend having some sort of plan though, especially when it comes to styling mods! If you just buy what you can afford when you can afford it you'll end up with a mish mash of styles and it'll end up looking tacky like mine! :grin: :tongue:

and I would like to use the same type of styling for this one but this time
more money spent on the engine and tuning.
Oh and your mini looks the business fella!!
