I can't keep track of what you have now, had before, or plan to have????

Can't you keep it simple, one man, one car, one vision, one dream!

[HARBER07]

Had a Mini, now have a Mk3 Astra GSi

Would have loved to stick the big Vaux engine in the mini, but things change. No longer practical for me to keep it as a daily driver. It was financially raping me just trying to keep it on the road, let alone get it ready for a conversion. As it stand I'll own the astra and part own the Minus with my dad So I'll still have a mini to play with.

Its 2 weeks of optional mini driving anyways. I'll cash the tax in at the end of the month and SORN it.

Drove it for the last time today . Proper gutted.

Gutted, reackon u'll get another one?


Reackon you'll go down the same route of making clever lightweight parts for the vaux ashtray?

[george91]

Shame to hear that mate, at least you have the minus though. Whats the plan for the red top then?

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

Even I'm sad to see this go Tom. Some pretty special times and events in that car, still, minus will be mint. L2b 2011 on me.

[HARBER07]

Yeah had some epic times in that car!. Will definitely get another mini at some point, but not for a few years anyway, its not like I'm gonna be without one to play with!.

Redtop is still getting built, and will go in the Astra. Won't really do much to it this year other than driving it. Lightweight parts will deffo find their way into the car at some point. Much more to come for the car next year though

Worth me sticking a build thread for it up on here?

[Burnard]

I thought craig was buying it?

[HARBER07]

So did I and a lot of other people!, But I can't get hold of him, he hasn't contacted me and I need the shell gone ASAP. Would have been listed earlier but I've been working weekend so haven't had the time to strip it

[mini_mad69]

Nightmare, chuck it on ebay!!

[HARBER07]

Just haven't had time to strip it which is gutting (no pun intended etc...). Been working weekends, and when I get in from work its pitch black.
