Mini cooper mpi 97

[Bobby H]

Hello everyone, I have just joined tmf and I have a 1997 cooper MPI in Volcano Orange(not Sports-pack . Currently very standard except for 12 inch Minilights and a Fletcher stainless exhaust, oh and hi lo's all round. I had hoped that as a later model she would have less rust......How wrong I was and now I have parts all over my garage. I have a door post to replace and sills and inner wings etc. Eventually I want to see her on 10 inch Minilights and 4 pot calipers but the body comes first.

Hi there!!
Im Jamie and i have the please of driving a 1987 Leyland Mini,
standard engine, K&N air filter is about the most mods it gets at the moment!
Had it for 2 years since passing my test and love it to peices, even when it brakes down!!

1995 Cooper, no mods yet. Too many things that can be done to it.

I have a 1989 Racing Green with a 1275i Cooper enguine.

Plans..? Unfortunately, it's to sell her. My first car, my first true love... but needs must. So long, Minky! A "For Sale" post is in the making.

Ello. Just picked up Monty, 1998 Flame Red Cooper MPI Sports.

He is the second current member in the family as I have a half share in 1986 Jet Black, called Fenton!, with my brother.
