Got me chuckling like Mr Bean....
I love Clubbys because they were my dads favourite shape, and always kept a Mini alongside his daily driver, almost like a pet.

As a Clubby-owning mate of mine used to say, "Proper Minis are square".  There was an identical-coloured H-reg Clubman terrorising my local streets back in the mid-80's when I was a youth, NONE of us could catch it, one day I found the guy in a garage, it had a gennie Arden 8-port 1293, no wonder it was fast... This though, should be even quicker. Gorgeous! |

Very nice, I'd love a supercharger for the midget, but for now i'll settle for less rust!.
The revo's are definately the best look.

Good job. It's probably very unfashionable for me to say it, but I liked it on the 13s more! The 10s are much better at disguising it's potential though and you've gotta love a sleeper.

Now that is what you call a nice clubby! love the sleeper look, all so innocent but with the potential to kill haha!
I do love alley cats but have to say i prefere the revo's on it!
Keep up the good work!

expensive being the key word then i've been told the standard boxes won't take any ounce of power over 100bhp by a mini fanatic. he nearly bought a straight cut box himself, he should've got a supercharger aswell ;D so are you from round sheffield area? |

the gearbox also has straight cut gears so you can hear that whining more than the charger lol I love the sound of straight cut gears I'm with rmad on the Alleycats ... but the car looks like a total barrel of laughs! Good work ! |
