Hi analogue_radio, i got 20m of the piping from a show and its on every edge in the car.
Hi richieg, minispeed were cool with me as i have done a lot of dealing with them. At the min i have only done 480 miles and its fine.

This car is amazing! The minilite wheels suit it very well along with the colour, I also have the mini magazine with this car featured and its one of my favorite looking mk1's. If you don't mind me asking, do the rear disk brakes allow use of the handbrake as i would asume it will work the pistons hydraulically? Also did you purchase your wheels through minilite as i have been thinking of getting some?

Took a trip to WHSmiths today and picked up a mini mag, great article - was a nice read on a gloomy sunday afternoon!
You'll pulled it off perfectly, well done.

Absolutely stunning. The interior is a work of art. My pickup is being fitted with minilifes (minilives?) from Minispares. I see there are no hub covers -- did I miss something or is that how they come?

this is a MINTER, kudos to you for creating such a mini!
if you dont mind me asking how much did the build cost?
*hurrys off to the bank for a loan*
