Former mini owner
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi Guys

I wanted to introduce myself before I posted in the classifieds section, I was a proud mini owner for over 10 years but sadly am no longer. A few years back the engine started to drop out of my mini and I decided that since I had to take the engine out anyway why not swap it for something a little more powerful. I decided to go down the turbo route, got myself a metro turbo stripped the engine and got it reconditioned, I also purchased a few other items to help with the conversion (mostly picked after looking on this site). Anyway just about this time I changed jobs moved house and found I had little time and money to continue working on the car, it started to get neglected and I eventually decided that it was a shame to keep it and I would rather the car went to someone that would enjoy it. This leaves me with a metro turbo engine surplus since it was not sold with the car as well as a few other bits.

I have thought of putting the lot on e-bay but decided I would ask you guys about it first. Obviously this is my first post and therefore I have no reputatation to call on, but the same is true for e-bay so what the hell. I would be very grateful for any advice you guys can give me.

Thanks

Ebay is a good bet, you'll almost certainly get the best price there due to aution fever.

I think you can probably count on 500 quid for a std turbo lump and ancillerys that hasnt been rebuilt,
