Hi, Just adding a few images of my mini, i'll soon be adding a supercharger after alot of research on some of the best ways to give a mini some umph!

Also does anyone know the best way to deal with rust bubbles so the little bugars won't come back (at least in he same spot).

Anyway what do you think it's not had the biggest of overhauls but is a tidy one, well i like to think anyway.

Thanks buddy i do my best to take care of it but have no choice but to use it as an all year round car so it takes all the rain, and have started to get the dreaded tiny rust bubbles!

Why Tom?

nice ride you have there,the only remedy for rust bubbles imo is replacement metal,sanding and filling imo is not cost effective and a false economy,i got fed up re-doing my doors and front end every year only for it to come back through,so fed up infact ive got a one piece fibre-glass flip-front,should see me right for a few years!

Just under the headlights, along the bottom of the passenger door and i know they can get nasty there!, and also on the side panel at the bottom buy the door groove facing the wheel if that makes sense?
