My newbie pics
Turbo Mini Forums

I've just bought this little beauty today, after winning an ebay auction for it :)

it was a mega bargain

so, here's the piccies













opinions? (i know the wheels need sorting, or the arches, and it has no turbo lol)

Robin

Looks really nice :)

yeah, I'm happy with it, Dash is a bit tatty, but it'll do for what i want it for

not 100% sure what needs doing to finish it, but I'm sure I'll work it out as time goes on

Cant grumble for 460 quid though :)

Looks very nice and clean. I hope the project goes well :)

Cheers, I hope so too

I've just noticed the Plenum seems to have a DV outlet... I think, not sure though

Yes it does have a DV take off, in the best place to.

Where in Northants are you Robin?

Wollaston mate, you?

Bloody hell, went to Wollaston Comp and still drink in the Boot occasionally.

I am in Earls Barton.

Get stuck for spares or help just pop over the river!

That makes at least four of us within 5 miles of the Pod.

Must be the fumes. LOL

Mr Rolph is a Rushden lad too, he's got a red Zeemax kitted Italian Job, K reg, the first one built apparently, the one MiniWorld gave away years ago

Its good to know I'm surrounded by people who will be helpful :)

Born a Londoner mate....

Who is your brother then?

JF.

it depends on when you were at Wollaston Comp really - Jonathan Marriott (if you were born in '77, you were in his year)

looks tidy, and you have access to the best resource for tweaking that turbo lump.

-MINI CLUBMAN 1380 TURBO-

I left school in 1986......

A bit older than him!

JF.

yet more in the northampton area

I've seen the future and tbh its Pie

And i have 3 A series turbo'd cars!..

Maybe Northants is the "Turbo Mecca"

JF....

another recruit added, think my mate might be tempted to buy a min now as well, so many of us so close yet somehow weve never crossed paths
