Steve, PM me the reg number, I am fairly sure that car used to belong to my friend Stuart, who was the guy that originally restored it. He used to run Evesham Mini Centre. If it is the car I think it is, then it used to have a 1400cc MiniSport engine in it.

It did not have the blue hoses, white dial faces, or "S" badge on the bonnet when it belonged to my friend, and looked all the better for it!

Yes it was restored, but probably getting on for 10 years ago, which just goes to demonstrate the quality of workmanship put in to doing it. I can remember it was done when I first met Stuart, which was in 1997.

This was my old Mini. I sold it 2 years ago. Someboby has done a few tastless changes that I see are going to be changed back like those blue hoses! Also the current tyres do not suit the car. When I had the car there was black dials and a nice black steering wheel. I had the Minis ride height very low with the the spax adjustables set hard and it handled great (also a bit bumpy).
