after owning my mini for 3 years i needed a new car which was more fun and cheaper than the mini to run,

so i bought a 2L straight 6 RWD car hahaha

heres my mini

some of you might remember
im still keeping it, its being kept in my grand farthers garage which is great,
the plan was to turbo it, but that isnt going to be for awhile, but is still going to be done......... one day

i bought it for £1600 which is pretty good, the only problems with the car is that it has been keyd up the both sides but ive just dropped it off in to the paint shop so that should be done soon :D

and about 2 days ago i bought some 50mm springs so hopefully it will be pretty low,
and if it looks anything like this i will be very happy!!

These cars are properly nice.

New lights look less chav spec, some nice wheels as well would set it off lovely.

Volk TE-37 would look nice.

yeah i hate the standard lexus light!!!!!
they had to go.
the wheels came on the car and they are proper ROUGH!!!!!
every wheel is curbed and laquer peeling off,

i really like borbet type a's :/

and i'll think i will buy the rota grids if i went for that style

yeah the kit if your lucky you can get for like £2000 but it only adds like 50bhp,tso its not worth the money,
its not the quickest car but its alot faster and comfy than the mini haha

I really like those new lights, they contrast well with the paint. Just looks a little different.

Looking forward to seeing it lowered!
