Stupid wind. The driveway gate swung free as I was putting the car away this evening, hitting the car. It's hopefully only hit the wheel arch. I'll look at it in the morning!

I'd almost forgotten I own this car 
Really must get some fixing type activity done soon! That pile of engine parts is still sat on the bench.

The time has come to get this Mini back on the road. All the photos in the thread are broken now, so here's one to get things started again (very much not present condition!). A lot has happened in the 12 years since I last updated the thread, none of it involving the Mini!
The plan is to get the car rolling again, then find someone to trailer it from my parents house to mine. From there, assess how the body work and mechanics have survived, work out what is a priority, and make a plan toward getting it moving under its own steam and an MOT.
I really should have done this sooner!
