I think it would be nice to have a good look around this just to see what they really have done to it, whether they've done a better job than it looks on TV, or as bad as it looks.
It did look nice when it was done. Agree with the arches, I'd have put something else on and wouldn't have bothered with the cooper stickers.
Interior looked good.
Probably worth winning it for the parts,
I'm thinking about it,

yeahhh may have entered a little bit, but the fact they are also offering £1000 towards adrian flux insurance makes it a good deal, and also who doesnt want a free mini to restore eh ?

I don't see how some of the engine bay(bulkhead) was painted, without the engine being painted, surely the engine must be out to do it?
And in the end it's a different steering wheel to the one Bernie buys?
I may have done.. 3 times

So oversills when bought, oversills still fitted. The whole of that floor looked bas so the inner sills must have been proper crusty. Also the wings were not replaced so that crap around the seams will show up in the not too distant future.
Still by that valuers decision it will make my clubman worth at least £10k so must invite him around for a cup of tea and cake.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!
Watching that was like seeing a bus full off kittens being kit by a train.
The welding was horrific, I'm fairly sure they just put another set of cover sills on after doing those repairs. Anyone else spot the multiple layers of sill or weld or something in front the the N/S rear arch?

Yep. I bet that car gained weight by at least 10kgs in pug alone. And the welding ye gods.
