Hello peeps,

I'm a 35 year old soldier in germany with my beloved Mini, a 96 Equinox in need of alot of tender loving care.

Anyone else out here in BFG? I'm in Osnabruck.

Is there a club out here?

Cheers for the reception guys and girls, found a few good tips and ideas on here already.

Got a few wierd looks at work once I unloaded my Mini and a garage full of bits into a spare hanger, and got a few people offering to help with the work.

In the process of stripping Scrappy down so I can prep him for a bare metal respray, had the front replaced last year and he deserves better than me in a garage with half a dozen spray cans from Halfords.

Will keep you all posted on the progress

Tony

I am attached to 1 Battalion REME, I am an RSI from the Really Large Corps.

Very handy being here as I can get my hands on just about everything I need, now if only I can convince the QM's that we need to build a spray shop, lol.

Hey, my bro already introduced me, so hi anyway.

I haven't heard of any clubs, but if you find out let me know and visa versa.

I'm heading down nurburgring with these crazy fools, first time i'm going to meet them.

Hope to see you there to!
