Flying the flag for turbo minis - my mini on DVD
Turbo Mini Forums

For anyone thats interested, my mini turbo appears on the ultimate mini extreme DVD which I believe is out tomorrow.

Its the latest DVD in the series, the first one had the bonkers mini williams on it.

Good laugh filming, although my headlight surround made a bid for freedom!

It was a major task to get it ready I'm amazed I got it rebuilt in time as some chav in a mondeo (if your out their, cheers for the fake details you gave me arsehole ) slammed into the o/s wing and arch so my bro's and I had to strip, reconstruct and re-spray the poor little mini 4 days before the film. Up to midnight every night and left a 4am to get to the filming location on time!

Phew - aint doing that again!

Didn't do too badly considering that I put it all together myself, its all steel, and the seat's are sooo damn heavy. I wish I'd had time to get the sus' set up. Never mind!

bad guy: What's the easy way?
Hannibal: That WAS the easy way.

Shame you didn't have a www.turbominis.co.uk sticker on it! congrats on getting it all back together though :)

extreme eh...
So what is yours then? spaceframe? lightweight? Pure racer? I was a little dissapointed with the first one, rather amatuerish - hopefully this one will be better!!!

TD,

Not sure I'd call it extreme, extremly heavy maybe!! Good day out though, and nice to meet Bill.

That reminds me, I emailed you about EFI and you did reply. I did email you back, but you never got back to me.

I have some info you may be interested in...

Just to remind you, my names matt, and I work for a well known aero engine co.
