Aylesbury - Crystal Palace = 50 miles
Crystal Palace - Brighton = 50 miles
Brighton - Aylesbury = 90 miles

190 miles on less than a tank of fuel, and with NO problems! Huzzah

[Ethel]

I suppose you think that deserves a plaque or summet?

[minili]

I was pleased! And Minty is adorned with plaques and stickers from Riv Run & L2B

[samwell]

Ruddy silly Mini
The headlights were working yesterday... But the indicators weren't

[minili]

Mini has headlights, tail lights, brake lights, indicators... Everything!

But no stereo (again) And it's filthy (despite being kept in the garage!)

[Down&Out]

and it was the best small bore mini on the rolling road shootout you even beat jeffs 1275 well done minili!

[minili]

Everyone beat Jeff's 1275 I was pretty surprised and pleased to win that hehe

Aaaargh the car's so awkward though, we thought we'd narrowed down the stereo problem to the headunit, so I just took it back for a replacement - that doesn't work either. Just no power. So I need to look at the wiring again Pretty sure everything lemming did wiring it in was fine, it must be a dodgy power source... But we used the line from the original stereo, which worked for a day

[Down&Out]

ohh deary. hit it with a hammer!... actually no bad idea.. to save me from stereo problems im just gunna have a line in and amp for my ipod hope it gets fixed this is a cool mini for the fact it is the same year as both of mine

fuses, you might have already tried but when i had a glass type fuse box witha very corroded fuse it used to cut out over bumps so i just span it in its sit and the stereo worked, magic!!
you may not have corroded fuses but just an idea

[Pie]

you checked you have a good earth lise??

[minili]

It is earthed, and I have checked the fuses many times recently due to dodgy leccy... though I don't know which one actually relates to what It's been suggested I should make a new loom as all the wiring is old and I don't know what does what

[B-shaw]

I see my gearstick knob

Looks ace Lisa, and beating a 1275 haha.. quality
