i think the chap that had the mini before me was good at talking a good job or just not got the time to do as much as he made out ??????????

 

ho well its in good hands now and after alot of thinking about the i think i will keep it as a mini city as is , and if i can keep the standed high may be get top money when i sell it as thats the plan with this one as i would love a 1275 gt next and will put alot of time and money in that one as its a life long dream to have the same car as my bro had back in the day .

 

my bro had one of the last 1980's 1275 gt's on a v reg jet black with gold strips down the side and after he had the car nicked and not found i would love to give him his car back .

 

may be one day .
