I've got an metallic blue and black Tamiya M01 on display at work, no pictures of it at the moment but I'll get some up on Monday.

I used to have this HPI 4WD mini but stupidly sold the chassis so now I just got the body. :thumbsup:

I have a few mardave minis (officially they're my daughters but hey ho) they should be for ministock racing but the girls just like using them to roar around with! (excuse the messy utility room computer desk!!)

i used to have one of the tamiya 1/10 ones, was a load of fun but at the time i only had one battery pack and a nitro powered truck (which all of my mates had too, nitro powered off roaders) so the mini got sold as nitro was just continuous play and no charge time!

After seeing some of your cracking "little" minis, I have decided to buy one, I know nothing about them, but this is the one I have bought.
Mini new mini mini

Will need some advise on paint etc, can I use halfords car paint as I want it to be exactly the same colour as mine

i have a mardave mini :dontgetit:

but no gear inside the thing, id love to get it going again

and i used to have a tamiya rover mini cooper, but the chassis broke because my dad used threadlock on it, and it melted the plastic :D

so i kept the shell, and modded it to fit my tamiya monster beetle chassis :P

I've joined your wee FB group.

Got a 2nd hand Tamiya FWD model, a 4 Wheel Drive "big" New MINI, and a Vauxhall arstra fuelly that I plan on squeezing a classic Tamiya shell over.

minispaniard has gone one. and whilst were waiting for our club to meet up, he got it out and someone ran it over in the car park!!! the only damage was a cracked shell at the front, but you can see the tire marks were it went straight over the middle - no idea how it didnt just smash to pieces. we think the driver may have been drunk, it was about 9 in the morning

indastrucamini!!
