Here is my son Jake, 4 years old and already mad about mini's.

He decided he wanted to change the wheel on his grandad's trailer for a nice alloy one. He's already helped me rubbing down the front wing on scrappy,lol.

Anyone else got pics of the kids getting involved?

Aww I used to do that I don't know what happened to the pics now, but I was always 'helping' my Dad with his when I was little! That's where it started!

Lol, it's great, he gets paid in jelly babies and party ring biscuits.

Unfortunatly he's decided that when I get old(er), then my mini will be his. Looks like I'd better find a project I can spend the next 13 years doing up for his 17th.

(Clever little so and so just kicked my bum on Colin McRea Dirt on my XBox 360!!! And he's 4!!!)

WRONG!!!! @ 16 actualy, i know

[998dave]

both wrong really.

minimum wage has different levels at different ages.
Also before your 14 I think you're not allowed to work, and 14-16 limited to a certain amount of hours, and times of the day.

But ignoring minimum wage then does that mean it's okay to have sweat shops, cas the kids aren't old enough to be paid minimum wage? Just asking... I could make a fortune exploiting the chav children round Barking... Pay them in the knock of gear they make!?
