Work progresses  Drivers side scuttle no repaired, new closing panel fitted and vent hole repaired, replace the vent with loads of mastic to stop water ingress. Still got to tidy the weld up but it's solid now   Passenger sdie also repaired, as is the vent hole, again loads of mastic to stop water getting in.  Got these wheels with the car, a mate of mine painted them up, after a refresh and some new rubber they will be back on  After a bit of wire brushing I figured a coat of Tetrasealing was order of the day ;D   So hopefully I am on track to have the new front end on by Sunday. not bad for a car I have owned for 2 weeks . |

I currently own 3 mini's and have lost count how many I have owned over the years. I bought my first one when I was 13 ;D almost 25 years ago  and have probably only had a 3 year break of not owning one in that time. Most I had at one time was 3 clubman estates and 2 1275GT's if only I still had them now  |

Currently driving a 1972 BMW 1602 as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

Not much left now, I need to get cracking as the MOT is booked for Saturday at 8.30. New windscreen goes in tomorrow then it's just the arches that need fitting   |

beautiful. i love it. not to keen on the wheels though, with a paintjob that shiny it needs some dish! you can pick 13x7 minilights up for less than £200 with rubber nowadays. looks spot on. |

Don't really like the way mini's drive on 13" wheels, they are much better on 12's or 10's It's going to be sold so who ever buys it can choose ;D |
