Yep, rear view mirror every ten seconds as well as a look in it when you change gear, slow down, speed up, approach and obstickle etc. I spent more time looking in mine than on the road lol

No not really, just the basics really, I still have to drop the subframe (reason I drove it out tonight and put it in forwards),finish the welding and check over the subframe, and then get it galvanised like I did with the mini subframes.

I can afford them, but how well do they stop in comparison?

They brake just fine but I'm on drums all round so 'fine' to me would be crap to someone on discs haha. I've locked on A008's in the wet but don't think I've locker the 32's in the wet.

Microsoft are supposedly killing of internet explorer in windows 10. What are we going to download chrome with now?

10 should be good though. Xp was good, Vista flop, 7 good, 8 flop, so logic dictates that 10 will be good, :D. I'll probably upgrade but only because it's free, otherwise I'd probably have stuck with 7 till games started using DX12.

No, that's wrong. Microsoft have announced an Amnesty kinda thing where even if you upgrade a non genuine copy, it will become genuine. i read about it in forbes. Have a look on their website http://www.forbes.com/sites/insertcoin/2015/03/19/why-microsoft-is-giving-away-windows-10-to-pirates/

Msoft PR statement says differently.

Poor build quality with lots of rattles /bumps and squeaks (on a low mileage car!) and front wheel drive.
Look nice though!

Nice cars and go well for a big car. Had a few tear ups with one in the past, good on the straight but not as quick in the corners. Ideal for a motorway cruiser with the occasional need for speed.

my old man had a high spec one a few years ago, admittedly it wasn't ST, but the self levelling rear sus collapsed I think...

Just started taking calls on the sale of the Moggy. I can tell already there's going to be some serious timewasters on this one.

sounds fair enough to me. I would welcome buyers to check through paperwork and check for matching numbers before parting with cash but if they started photographing numbers or writing them down, i'd ask them to leave

Love Moggys had several over the years. Is it on Ebay ?
Mar 18 2015 08:11 PM -
Miniminx71
No. Car and Classic. The white and red convertible in Wiltshire. Very optimistically priced (but open to sensible offers). Unfortunately, I didn't write the ad - a friend did by lifting an ebay description - and it's horrific and I'm going to have to re-do it. If you want something done ....
