Welcome It's Driiftie's old rep

Looking at getting a classic mini, the particular one i'm looking at is a Y reg 1982 Austin Mini Mayfair 998cc in silver, looks relatively solid as I know the sills, scuttle, lower boot, arches, basically everything rusts on them, and it's just over 30 years old, but it looks good for the money and no major things need doing (i.e cutting panels out and replacing), I could just get it and drive it home. I was thinking of getting one and tarting it up a bit, put some nice alloys on it, new suspension, new interior, pull the engine out and replace parts on it that are looking worse for ware,whilst it's out clean the engine bay, that sort of thing. The good thing is the cost of aftermarket parts for the classic mini's are surprisingly cheap, so it wouldn't cost a lot to do up for a fun little project Has anyone ever owned one on here? I know they'll probably only go about 60mph tops with the 998cc engine, and take about 20 seconds to get there...but I really have a soft spot for them and they look very nimble (power to weight will probably be the same as a N/A) and fun to drive! Do you think it would be a fun project? *sp

Looks really smart, you should get some custom SR stickers from morgey in purple and grey, they would look EPIC

LOL

Still Wanted

What's insurance like in NZ for one of them at 17? (per month)

.

As above, but I am sure PayPal will refund you, it will just take a bit longer then coming to a mutual agreement

Still wanted

They are just feeding you that to guilt trip you, "oh this is wrong too, but i'll let you off THIS time, heres a ticket for your other problem"....Always the case! Aren't HID's illegal anyway if they aren't fitted from factory? They are fucking bright and piss me off lol

Sweet, Nice colour

don't take it apart, continue with the dispute and get it sent back, it is not in working order

Fuchs titan race pro 5w30 fully synthetic, cost a bit but it's good oil

Ooooft Coming on now mate not far to go by the looks of it! That is a top job by WEPR, PROPER welding!

MOT and TAX expired oct/dec 2013

They don't fit unfortunately if it would have been for ep82 then it may have been workable to swap a few cables around as necessary to make it work, oh well

Well now I have another problem with a extension harness I ordered for "4efe wiring", and being sent to me to be used with a 4efte loom/ecu........ He is saying I should chop cables off the extension harness and send that back for a refund!!!! He says it is "not possible" to send the ignition/main/extension harness back for a refund? "Not possible".....right.....

I mentioned this too him a while back, for both the quality of the welding rod and the actual piping, but he insists it is of high grade.

Will be returning for a full refund instead mate, won't be too expensive to ship over

There's better things then national service now, they are called nukes We don't need to get involved in all of this anyway (yes people from Britain got killed, but that's not part of the bigger picture), it would just be a stupid war to take part in. We have enough money to spend on other crap then getting involved in yet another war that has nothing to do with us but david cameron/past PM's feel the need or "responsibility" too since USA is part of the war, fuck the USA, fuck everyone, we need to take care of our own not anyone else
