Hi all,

I Always wanted a mini as a kid but never managed to get one.

So for some reason I started looking the other week on the net and then picked one up this weekend. We have been out driving this weekend and love it!

It needs some bodywork attention and I do not know where to start but I am going to get it to concourse condition somehow.

I would like to put some good, sticky tyres on the stock 12" wheels but am not sure which is best? and I would also like to put some 4 pots brakes on but otherwise I think it will stay original.... hmmm suspension could be an option too ;D

I will probably be around asking a few questions and using your experience with minis to assist a newbie with his new hobbie.

Cheers

Lee
