Haha seems to be the case! I'm hoping that's the reason it looks lower at the front than the rear as well… Onto Minispares!

Purchased top/bottom radiator hoses, and a thermostat housing sandwich from Minispares. Another receipt to add to the growing list! :D

This mornings update due to the site being down yesterday.

 

Finished removing all the stickers and removing all the glue. What a PITA job that was, then machine polished all the panels. It looks amazing in the pics but up close the quality of the paint job isn't brilliant but it holds a good shine and reflection. Beats having a rusty mini I suppose.

Took it for its MOT on Friday which it passed, and then spent the weekend in the Lake District driving it round some of the best roads in the country with a few other mini owners

Just saw this thread... boy... I got a bit going on but today.... Plumbed up my heater, fitted new screen vents and ducting, fitted windscreen washer kit (cant believe how much of a pain that was!!) re-foamed my front seats...

 

Ticked a few jobs off today...

 

Wish I was driving my mini through puddles though.... heeheeheee...

Took it for a long drive. Had an ice cream. Got a load of waves from French tourists on a coach. Got dangerously cut up by a black Subaru that just simply had to get in front and then drove along slower than we had been going (git). Looked at the stones in Avebury. Haven't moved since I was last there. Bought some Refreshers and put nearly the whole roll into my mouth at once to see what it would be like. Got aggravated by friend who always, always, always manages to get the seatbelt twisted round the wrong way. Came home. Spent 20 minutes cleaning rock hard flies off grille and windscreen. Put her away. Nice day :proud:

Realised that I had painted up my radius arms all nice and shiny red but forgotten to take off the collar around the stub axle that the shock absorber goes on - thats why it wouldn't fit :-)

 

Off and now its all good.
