Nope
Topped it up while in Cornwall, drove back to northampton, and it had lost that much! About 850ml I think. I did the timing cover, it's still leaking from the head gasket and goodness knows where else!

Welded a nut in each corner of the dash rail then counter bored hole in the dash and used counter sunk Allen head bolts to secure the dash which produced a flush finish. On the bottom of the dash I made some alloy brackets which where fiberglassed to the dash then bolted to lower dash rail.

Got my boyfriend to work on my mini! Just engine bits and pieces... He took her to his house last week and I'm sad she isn't on my drive!
