While it was on the ramps I took a few cheeky pics.

!2 months after the engine re-build and not a drop dripped - it's in danger of going rusty under there :-)

I drove it on the road up to an indicated 60mph. This is the first time the car has been driven for 10 years and the first time I've driven a Mini since 1983. Nostalgic or what?

Took my car to Beaulieu with the newly self built 1275 mg metro motor, didn't miss a beat well chuffed! Parked next to the Elf belonging to the couple from Miniworld magazine.

Gave the old girl a wash, t cut and wax. I suspect the first in years!

It's come up so well, it's like looking in a mirror. Well chuffed.
