Keep boris, i have thought about selling my mini every time it breaks on me. Like anorak says, it all goes well for a while and then it breaks again and you think thats the final straw. However, everytime you walk past it and think about selling it, you cant imagine it gone so you change your mind and say that you'll fix it just one more time :thumbsup: You have already shown your affection for the car by fixing the rust and not just leaving it to rot like any other old car. Why don't you have a mini fund and put away some money for unexpected repairs so that if it breaks the money is there and you wont miss it and then wont feel so bad about sudden breakdowns.

yeah, the green ones my project but on top of that i have to keep the red one on the road and usable. its constant tweaking but worth it.

actually im considering putting the green one on hold for a bit, putting it under a cover and saving up to sort it out next summer. there's lots to do but its too good to sell and i know that once its done, it will be a bargain :D


By the way didnt aswer one of your questions yup weve been to a show last years Miniworld Action day :dontgetit:

Is there a section on this forum that informs you of all the future Mini shows?

*Woooow Boris!*

:( Dont sell Boris :( Minis have a habit of misbehaving and it always seems to happen in speights! Its never one thing that goes, its always 2 or 3 at once, but once there all fixed, hell be fine until the next 3 things happen! :lol: Im not having much luck either with Lily, but at the end of the day, I love her to bits and will keep pouring my money into her, im a bit of a sucker! I know that all my family are thinking I should get rid, but they dont dare say anything cause ill shout at them and tell them where to go!!

You've only had him for a month, it will take you a few months and a bit of cash to get him to how you want him, but your getting there, so neither of you give up on him just yet :(

burnerking- Im not too sure, but if you have a look in the back of Mini Mag and Mini World, there all listed in there. Might be on their websites too?!

Plus next year is Mini 50, so if you sell Boris you'll be feeling sick as a pig come next year.
