    I recon my vectra would come back with more issues if I tried to MOT it. MIssing O/S/R wheel might be the first...

I'm now the proud... er wait no... Resorted to desperate measures out of necessity, owner of a 1.3 mazda 323. Joking aside I'm kind of glad to have a lower powered car that I can build my confidence up again on.

    No. You are thinking of the 121. The 323 is its bigger brother. Its slow buts that's probably a good thing at the minute.

Hmmm, how long is it going to take me to pay off my mini dept to my parents then make enough money to finish restoring the mini, whilst on £5.15 an hour?

    I should get paid. I make my boss money, as do other apprentices. :) Apprentice min wage should get scrapped IMO, in favour of the normal min wage. It's only fair.

    22 years old :(. Should be getting my MOT licence in 18 months though. :) I mainly collect, service then deliver customers cars to their home, or work, address. I obviously do other jobs such as changing tyres, and general repair work like starter motors, alternators ect. I prefer servicing to be honest, It's less of a PITA. :)

    Everything, haha. Emmissions, exhaust leak, missing rear fog light, needed new brakes and they needed adjusting, corrosion and a list of advisories I wanted done :)

    Slid down the road sideways after getting a tank slapper and the back passenger corner hit the bank on the entrance way to a field at a funny angle. Despite the pictures I took looking really bad the roll over was really slow. I had time to brace myself when I realised I was going over and then think, "ahh damm, that's going to be a right off" as it landed on the roof and then "stop, stop, stop" when I realised it was going over onto my side.

subframe mounts done, another thing to tick off the list, just wish the timing cover seal would turn up so I can get the engine back in and finish it.

    The smile on someones face when they've never been in a mini before is quite nice as well.
