Looks good My best mate swears by Metros

As in 'oh no, the fu**ing head gasket has gone again?!'

Noooooo! He loves them. He only got one as his first car because it was cheap but that's all he's owned. Not got one at the moment as he's in uni but y'know!

Guys,

Quick one... seen as the Goblin has walnut trim... what's the likelihood of Mini-style walnut door furniture fitting him? Bro's concocting plans already and would love some to compliment things.

Any ideas?

I'm fairly sure the window winders are the same - to check remove the screw from the middle and pull the winder off - if it has a big hexagon bit that it fits onto then there's every chance Mini ones will fit - Rover (and it's predecessors) were masters at raiding the parts bin for something that will do rather than designing a new bit that looks better but at the end of the day does the same job! Don't think any of the other bits will fit though.

who was it on here that got a red metro GTA to replace his mini (temporarily i think)? got it at at a really cheap price, and i think it was lowered and looked really really good. that was the first time i started actually paying attention to late metros/100's. there were a few i looked at when i needed a new car after i crashed my mini. none of them were in the good condition they said they were in though.
