Mini started fine all over the weekend. Today - nothing. Totally dead. No ignition lights - zero. No obvious reason but probably the battery. Don't you just love the complete lack of warnings from a Mini ...

Does the red right on the dash always point to the alternator? or could it be something else?

could be a bad connection in the loom to the alternator.

What’s the point in being given a mobile number to arrange an interview, only for the mobile number to not be recognised.

Linkoln BIG mini day today in the metro, spent 4 hours show prepping it, went down there with other from LnL moc, got to the gate, sadly the metro was not aloud in, i accept its not fully a mini and shouldn't expect to get in so parked in a (rip off) multistory. Walk into the show to find an old landrover (all be a very nice on).... now that is a weird looking mini :P not that im bitter, and i do appreciate the effort it take to organised an event like this. That hiccup aside, a good show...

I arrived late due to the A57 to A1 slip road being closed. We got diverted through Newark but hit traffic for around 1 hour! got to Lincoln and they wouldn't open the gates for just 2 minis. Safe to say i was pissed off with the way he spoke to me too, saying i should have got here earlier! Nearly wrapped a spanner around his head.

If there are a load of Mini freebies, do they become one big freebie?

Alex, I can weld them together and make a Big Mini Freebie if you want ? Although I suppose that would constitute as a BINI then :/ Bahhhh
