i see your car pretty much every day......

Yeah i'm on TMF my signature is not that picture but a close up of the front end, i have a fair few pics in the 'Garage' section on TMF.

Mine.... Metro Turbo Fitted Running 18psi

about to spray my mini in matt black, need some good products to protect the car over the winter months so that it doesn't get another case of the rusts!

priced correctly to sell IMO

M11 / M25 junction thing, i think you noticed me!

sounds like it was a heavy hit! glad your ok....

people will wanna know the mileage

him and the fiesta ST should have been equal so there must be some major engine work i.e remap, hybrid turbo, injectors etc etc

warped disc then

hole in the bottom of the drivers side wingmirror?

yours looks lower at the back than mine. (mine is standard)

not sure where the button is on the clio!

it could be if your engine mounts are shagged that the engine is knocking on the subframe or bulkhead with enough force to effect the cut off switch. just an idea.

presume it is the fuel cut off / engine kill reset button, if you have a big bump or crash it shuts then engine off for safety reasons.

3.02 ???

saw this on the mini forum...

internals are surprisingly good, the metro turbo engines came with uprated pistons etc. 16psi will be ok with the uprated gearbox and diff which i already have.

£600 @ 21 sounds good price, who was that with?

i'm going to put my current gearbox (straight cut box) and diff on the new engine, both should be able to handle the extra power. plumbing looks worse than it is because of the uprated intercooler most people go for.

rust is not bad at all! it was de-rusted and resprayed about 6 or 7 years ago. i'm going to respray it the same ford imperial blue all over and get the arches smoothed in as well.

yeah you can either go for the full track look or keep it old school! I hate the steering wheel at the moment, want to change it for a black one.

i know what you mean from that selection of pics, but when you see the whole car it fits nicely with the theme.

nope i dont like it.

Ok i've had my mini a while now and have decided that it is time to upgrade the engine. At the moment it has an 'A-series' 1275cc engine with a crazy race cam, it produces about 60bhp! :evil: I will be picking up a metro turbo engine next week and hope to be running about 160bhp @ 16psi...

lol ive still got my originals on my 182 thats 26k miles.

passenger seat in your v6 ftw!

amazing car, sensibly priced. good luck!
