so my mum has been asking me for months "what do you want for your 18th" and everytime i said rolling road sesh and she just gave me a blank stare but today i finaly convinced her to get it for me so feb 11th il be driving my annoyingly loud mini (decided to put a motorbike exhaust on, the slight power difference isnt worth the annoying noise!) to mini sport. il be leaving at about 4am as the guy i spoke to on the phone insisted if i want new exhaust fitted, full service and rolling road session i need to be there at about 9. what do people think of the minisport proflow manifolds/minisports own exhausts all together? im hoping to make the mini abit more sensable now im on the road abit more.

You're almost as mad as me traveling all that way
not sure about the manfifold but I've got a minisport exhaust and love it, I've wanted to get my mini RR'd at minisport for a while

ive heard mixed reviews about minisport is the only thing. personaly ive not had ay problems with them and have heard there RR guy is amazing. mums decided she will pay for the 120,000 mile service which is 150 ish and the RR sesh. and so im gonna spend money on any bits i fancey when im there. might need a roof rack though :/

[danrock101]

[grainge231]

Crap just seen where your from - near me!! that is a trek, suppose it will be a good drive home tho

[grainge231]

yeah the noisey motorbike exhaust is just effort of changing back over to the old sportex, which was also supidly loud. so just gonna put up with it on the way there. and thenhave a loverly drive back with my mini being in great running condition fingers crossed lol. still ... anybody know where i can get a classic style roof rack without having my pants pulled down over the price . i have to get my old exhaust and whatever else i buy home.

i have a vw/ford type one i got for free of me grandad but i think you can get them alot cheaper than the mini ones.

This sounds like a brill idea! My mum would never buy anything for the mini because she's a female dog
