I got hold of a set of brand new mini wheel arches recently they are brand new in the original box, i will be fitting them onto my vtec mini if they are of an ok width but was wondering how much they are worth!




Also i have a mini minus that i am currently restoring and fitting with a 1.3 micra engine i was offer 1500 for it today and i turned it down and the same guy offered me 2000 for it 20 minutes later with the car unfinished now is there something i dont know?

it has a 3" body chop and also has a lowered roof of 1" i believe



when the minus is finished this is all the extras it will have plus a few more


1.5 camber all round
all round poly bushes
new polycarb windows
leather monte carlo door cards
lotus elise seats
carbon dash board
ligthened rear subframe
new radius arms
carbon miglia arches
1.3 micra engine
bike carbs
megajolt
nitrous oxide tank in the boot

i am not looking at selling it but would like a valuation of what i would get for it in its current condition and when it is finished it is also tax exempt

I've never seen a set of Cosmic arches for sale but I'd probably drop £150+ for a set if I got near them.

Typical, looked for a set of these arches for years, picked a set up bnib 2 weeks ago and then these appear too!

Pop them on eBay, international shipping and you'll get silly amounts for them. £150+ I'd say.

Lol i might not be using them but i do like the look of them,

the minus might have to be sold this week so i might just take the guy up on the offer

Ive been looking for a minus shell for ages, they always come up just after ive wasted all of my money on something else.
New minus shells are going for about £2700 (not sure if they are as good as the old ones) so if your selling it with all the bits you've listed £2000's a steal! :)

this is the original Status minus produced its number 12#,

looks like i am going to have to sell the minus soon to pay for the insurance of my everyday car

Looks like this might be have to be up for sale next week i have got to the second stage of an application process after this i should be offered a job, but it requires that i have car that is ready for the beginning of next week and is able to transport 3 other crew members as well as all of there bags etc also during the evenings it has to be able to transport customers from the store back to there homes

bit of awkward situation really i either turn the job down and keep the minus or sell the minus rush to buy a practifical car with enough room and good fuel economy

the above might not ever happen but i got to think about it as with the current job market you cannot really turn down a job

RANT OVER!
