thminiman Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 thats for me to know and you to find out... thats one thing i found with the mini... after it had sat round for years and i started driving it, shit started to go wrong cos it was wrong for so long. Exhaust broke, brakes needed full rebuild, clutch needed a massive bleed and adjust, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jafa.and.proud Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 ooo sweet i got me a stalker i can only think of 1 person that has a mini... hmmm yea, it sat for too long, now just constantly pouring money into it which is why i will probably sell it before its next wof is due, although according to me almost every bloody thing except the vitals are less than a year old and have eben replaced haha it wont take much to get it visually mint, just trying to think of a way to get a real cheap respray and get the last of the rust fixed, then its just the back chrome bumper and one of the chrome headlight surrounds needing replace and it should be mint. interior the top of the dash is ripped, and there is 1 rip in the drivers seat right along a join Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jafa.and.proud Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 yah thats terrible, what did the cunts say when they showed it to you when you picked it up?!? They didn't show me, they didn't mention anything about it to me, I never thought to have a look before paying as why they hell would I ever expect it to look like that, especially not for $280. I just had a breif glance at the car from 2 metres away where i pulled in when went to collect it and didn't notice it Have been in contact with them, they don't care and won't do anything about it, also had a decent read over the invoice on which there is a note hidden away saying about it warping, and claiming they discussed it with me (yea right - was never mentioned) And as of now the tip stays, yes it is gross, yes I bought it as a joke, but also yes it looks infinately times better than the standard pea shooter sticking out the back. Not doing anything more with the car till after exams, and may look at getting a new exhaust system for it or at least tidying up the one thats on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy_rich Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I cant believe that door repair dude, it honestly looks like some chump has just filled it with bog and spray bombed it one coat styles. its a pity its not really worth taking them through the courts or anything. are new doors easy to get?

jafa.and.proud Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 There is a few around that I could scam parts off, but they have mostly all been sitting out for years and are rusted as well, and colour matching is hard Going to see what can be done to that door to fix it up a bit, but yea, so gutted about it, visually it WAS the best door on the car haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
