been here long enough so i might as well tell you a bit about myself
Turbo Mini Forums

i'm dan as you have all probably guessed, i've been on this forum for a while now and it was finding this forum that inspired me to go ahead and do a turbo mini, i got given a '75 clubman for nothing and that is now the base for my turbo project.
i'm 19, i'll be 20 in may and i've been in to minis for a long time, ever since my godfather took me out in his cooper s when i was younger, i've been hooked on minis and always wanted one of my own. i now own 2 minis and have just sold my first one.
i am currently training as a nurse at southampton uni and loving it, i go out on my practicals in february and i cant wait, i dont work at the moment but i get about ?500 a month to go to uni so it doesnt really matter.
my other hobby is mountain biking, mainly riding dirt jumps and street, been doing that for a long time but seem to have got more sensible in my old age so havent really progressed much for a couple of years. oh well!
anyway thats me.
DAN :)

funny u should say that as well. I used to do dirt jumping and duel slalom, but had a nasty incident which put me off, so only really do road riding and a bit of x.c. now. Got a mini which i restored to learn to drive in. Now its too slow so building a turbo engine for it. And i'm 18 by the way.
