Hey, just found the site. I am 17 and from Scotland. Currently looking for a mini for my first car. Plans are 13" chrome minilites, Zeemax bodykit and playmini exhaust. So if anyone is in the Aberdeenshire area and has a mini for sale let me know. :grin:

Yup Scotland has some really nice twisty country roads. Perfect for a mini. Might be going to look at a cooper tommorow. It possibly needs a new rear subframe for it's next m.o.t. Are these expensive to replace??

Hi and welcome to TMF. Im from scotland too, only about 30 miles away from you.

As for rear subframe they cost around £100 for any unoffical one, but for a proper Rover one they cost a LOT more.
