do you go to college or anything? i live in wheatley near town so you might of seen me wizzinf around

so far the only people up for a club are family members lol,
i bought a mini last october to be rebuilt, then my girlfriend got one, then i got another, then my mate got one, then i bought my dad one and my sister now has one aswell lol. not to mention the girlfriends sister and her boyfriend having one, but theyve moved back to the lake district now
i know of a few more minis around intake etc, so might be able to get them to join in
hopefully getting a club stand at london to brighton next year as our first club outing. but i need to sort out for a sign and stuff to be made
and most club have a membership fee, but as we'll just be starting out as a group of mates as such, ill probably let a few slip for the first year tho, if i like you of course lol

[adam_93rio]

lol, brakes are terrible things to to, same with the clutch. just hours of up... down.... up.... down
even with the eezibleed kit i find its loads easier to use 2 people


and thanks about the grille, did yo uwant anything for it? i need to spray mine white again i think. it illuminous orange at the moment but the paint underneath started to come through again, so it doesnt look brilliant
dunno if youve seen my mini on here, but if you see me around gimme a wave and shout im scott or something. if im not in a hurry to get anywhere ill stop and have a chat or something

and yeh, theres quite a few minis in doncaster, i see loads on my travels anyway there seems to be loads round the worksop area (im an engineer so most of the time im in the van)

also, if ever i pass you and dont flash my lights, im not being ignorant. i melted the wires in my flasher bit of the stalk
