your like, 99.9% finished with a job your doing on a mini, and the ONE THING you need, isnt there!?

i mean, sure, not too bad if u actually was unaware of it.
but when SOMEONE arranges and AGREES on the thing at hand and when it comes to it,
THEY'VE SOLD IT and placed the other stuff for sale too.

now it wdnt be as bad if he told me, not jsut gone and done it!

NOW the mini's STILL in the garage, dads annoyed because he cant get his work done, cant get mot, so gotta sworn it in now AND i now have no blooming car!!!

AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH :thumbsup:

rant over :/

I hate it when you buy something, put it together and find it broke or will need extra bits replacing.

It’s only now after buying a second-hand replacement rear subframe for the project and recondition the arms and bolting on my proper wheels. That it now appears either the rear frame is bent, radius arm or both.
And one of the new front wheel bearings doesn’t sound too healthy either. :thumbsup:

Oh and I’m forever doing a “mini93” I know I’ve bought something, just I’ll be *melonsed* if I can remember were it’s disappeared off to.

haha, when it takes ages to put it in place, put it all together, and think its not right, so gotta take it all apart, JUST to find out it was right anyway!!!
thats when the french language is used to its colourful potential to say the least.

case on the "mini93"? sounds catchy :P

I bought some seat extenders off a company through ebay i really need them because my legs are basically vertical when i drive. I ordered them on the 15th, nothing came so i rang them on the 28th and they told me they had no stock! they didn't even think to message me or anything! It is really annoying.

Only going to get parts of proper company's now!
