Hi,

Ive been posting on this forum for a while but havent exactly explained to anyone what type of mini i have and where im from. I live close to Norwich (UK) and have a white Mini Mayfair Special Edition 1275cc Auto.

Its been a jinx car. Ive had various things done to it, including having a new gearbox, CV joints, sills, floors, wheel bearings...etc and thats just the start. Im just earning enough money now to get things sorted on it. Last month i converted my lights to clears and added halogens on the fronts. Ive got 6 x 9's under the seats and 16.5 cm infinitys on the back shelf powered by a half decent pioneer headunit and amp.

Tjhe bodywork is good, but needs the average treatment. The car sits in my garage where i try to do various things to it. All interior is standard atm.

Basically the car is in good condition, but just needs those little few things replacing that have been broken, are fading, are dented...etc...you know what its like.

My plans for the future are to get a nice set of alloys and replace all these worn parts, ie grille, arches...etc. Im looking to make the car look a bit different though, so any ideas would be appreciated.

Ive also started (somewhat a while ago) a website which was dedicated to ICE in mini's but would like to get it properly up and running with peoples projects...etc - maybe a bit like a haynes (up to date) manual on how to do things! - anything would be appreciated. My web address is http://www.minisoundsystem.cjb.net

Also if there is anyone out there who live in my area (i live close to Norwich, nr Beccles), then let me know, would be great to hear from you!

Thanks
Neil
