took it to a garage for a new wing, forgot to take the new rubber seal for the body kit. Drove the first 5 miles with the boot open and all 30 miles with the radiator cap off - Back to bed and start the day again....

Finalised the insurance today (£502) and gave her a polish with MER. My god, she shone before but she positively gleams now!  :-)

Stood drooling at her and pinching myself to remind me that -"yes, it IS mine". She really attracts the eye sitting in our workshop/garage and as soon as a fresh pair of eyes light upon her all the "I had a mini once" and "my first car was a mini" stories come tumbling out. And every story is told with much affection by smiling people. Nice to know I have some uses... :-)

Nice one Smackfiend, a very original touch. Haven`t even seen my min today as it is garaged 14 miles from home, but I did buy it a radio and I just hope it is compatible with the 2 plugs and 9 million wires that are in the dash box! lol  :wacko:
