Fitted these articulated bonnet hinges over the weekend! :D

fantastic.. do the hinges also hold the bonnet up?

I took this picture before I fitted the gas struts, at this stage it was like 7 hours of fitting haha. But yeah they did to an extent, although I wouldn't use them in the vertical position without the struts.

New front doughnut arrived from Mini spares this morning :proud:

I'm getting good at fitting them now - 1 hour flat, I had already taken the damaged one off though :shy:  Took it for a spin and all good, still firm but a much more comfortable ride, same height on both sides and I didn't bang my head on the roof going slowly over a speed bump.

Took my Mini to SETyres (Tunbridge Wells Branch) for 2 new 165/60x12 Yokohama tyres to be fitted, not only were they the cheapest price at £131.60 (including valves, balancing and disposal of old tyres) but they were extremely careful over the whole process, the supervisor asked where I would like the car jacked up, whether I wanted chrome valves and was there a preferred torque for the wheel nuts and instructed the fitter to be careful with the polished rims. The job was completed promptly and courteously with no damage to the wheels.  :-)
