I've had a classic Mini too. These things are just cack compared, have you seen the 'Countryman'?!

Shame they're all German. Sigh.

Very nice :approve:

From Halfords? ;)

I thought you still lived there Chris :eek: I'll be looking for an apartment in town soon.

Who were you insured with that said that?

No, this one is up Chester Road just after the National Tyres garage.

No, the electronic throttle won't allow it! I'll look at replacing the alternator asap and see how that goes. Cheers!

Ah reet. Fucker!

No worries :) thanks man. I've checked all the earths, they're all fine. Jump started the car, left the jump leads on, everything behaves as it should. The moment I take them off, the alternator voltage drops as does the battery, then the car eventually cuts out. What could this mean? It's...

I'm hoping to have it sorted by the weekend as I'm on a plane on Monday! Don't wanna come back to this so looks like I'll have to leave it with an electrician for a bit! Thanks anyway pal. :)

Why were you taken to court over a year after you were caught? I thought they had up to 6 months to start court proceedings and anything after is 'invalid' so to speak.

Blue.

It's a 172 Cup as well.

:o I just wanted some attention really.

Black vinyl ;)

How much?! Wonder how many owners are on the logbook now...

Yet no one reported it? Nice photos. I hope to attend next year.

Nice car, shocking pictures ;)

Nice shots, whose is the yellow 200?

Very nice, bonus with the Yozza too :)

I did mine, front and back but ended up peeling the back off.

Suits it. Love the Blobeye :)

You call that a flame? ;)

Bury mate. I measured the battery output and it was charging but losing charge quite quickly once I took the jump leads off. The alternator (measured on the bolt for the main wire to connect it) was reading 1.6v at it's peak!

I've been assured it's a reconditioned unit and has covered 2k since being done, so it seems unlikely that it's at fault after hearing that. Running out of ideas now unless it's the wire being corroded that's tricking the battery into thinking it's not getting any charge, and hence the...
