Done the last finishing touches (put fuel in) for its first mot in many years, hopefully all goes well

Good luck with the mot, let us know how you get on.

It passed, straight through with no advisories either, well chuffed, tax it tomorrow and start using it,

Welcome to the on the road club. Once I fix my coolant leak I'll be back on the road.

Thanks, it's been probably 5 years building this one, and at least 10 years since I last drove one, excited to actually use it now

Realised I'd lost a hub cap. Gonna head over to Huddersfield Spares to collect another one. Might get a couple of spares, lol.

Think I just saw you drive past ahaha, can't not recognize the sound of a Mini.

Very nice run over the top of Peak District on the way home. Shame about the Monsoon.

Shuffled the fleet around so I could get the Mini in the garage. Tomorrow I'll start pulling the front suspension apart to replace the doughnuts - the bump stops just don't give enough suspension travel for comfort   After hearing the trouble a lot of people have with the tower bolts I thought I'd see if they would budge - socket, big bar and 'CRACK' -  budge they did  So in the morning I'll strip it down and see what's what before ordering everything I need.

Came up with every excuse to take my clubby for various toodles t'day, the last one was that she wasn't properly lined up for going back in the garage so told the wife I was going to rectify it. My son and I returned about half an hour later!
