Hey,

 

So I've just sold my BMW 645Ci which was fast... just not the 'Dancing with the Devil factor'. I had a 02' Supercharged JCW Mini running 232HP which was my favorite car for the country roads. 

 

So I brought a 1990 Rover Mini Checkmate 1L, The plan being to completely rebuild it and turn it into an absolute missile. not sure whether to R1 is or buy a 1.3 block and supercharge or turbo it. And to look a little something like this, but trying to keep it sleeper.

I have already ordered a 6 point weld in roll cage to be done, looking to redo the interior, Leather buckets seats, harnesses, etc. Then suspension and brakes to due course before engine mods.
