I have a track day only Sprite. It is completely stripped out leaving one bucket seat and a very rudimentary dash. Hi Los, negative camber and Spax all around. It's got Minisport's stage 1 kit fitted but I have also put on an Osselli stage 2 head. It's all very basic, not particularly fast but great fun on the track!

I have a 2001 cooper sport pack. Its got a k&n with cold airfeeds, minisport front pipe, de-cat and supersport 2.25 exhaust, konis and hi los all round. needs raising actually because the rears scrub lots.

looking at 1340 or maybe a 1380 for it.

I have a 1985 Mayfair shes silver with...

- 1300cc metro engine
- Deseamed front and rear bumpers and had the numberplate light bit taken off the boot lid
- Hi-Los (mine rub on back arches too with 2 peeps in the car)
- Peco twin upswept centre exit exhaust
- K&N filter
- Cooper 500 silver and black leather interior
- Innocenti dash (the one with lots of dials across the dash)
- Deep dish alloys
- oooh and gorgeous black headlining!

Last year she had a major resto with huge thanks to my fiance Andrew and the guys at R&J Jeffs in Camelford they did a fantastic job to the paint and deseaming her - they also looked after me the neurotic mini owner! They come highly recommended to anyone down this way in Cornwall.

I'm starting to glam up the engine bay but i'm not looking forward to keeping it clean under there!

Stuffs been done under the bonnet though although i think the guy who did it must have been drunk when he decided to cover everything in silver house paint mmmm sexy :sick: that will come off when i can be bothered!! Any hows would tell you what else has been done under there but dont really have a clue my bf was sayin something about a gt head and a hif 38 thats all i know sowwy!

I do know that its a 1992 Rover mini, and the A+ 1275 has been set about by MLMotorsport and is now

1293cc
Stage 3 Head with 'high quality' pistons
Electronic Ignition
Metro Camshaft
Turbo clutch (which i beleive is pre-verto, like a racing clutch)
standard disks and EBC green pads
Lcb manifold
stainless steel exhaust
45amp alternator
K&N cone filter just cleaned up and re-oiled

tuned last month at northernminis 68BHP at the rollers (which i guess would be 80-85 if it was tested at the flywheel) and its occured to me writing this i don't know what carb i have :gasp:

and the non-engine stuff

Zeemax kit
rage 5 colour flip illusion paint
13" x 7" deep dish superlights with new Yokohamas
angel eyes
cooper grill
crome wipers, interior handles
cobra monaco buckets
4 point sabelt harness
CD/SD card HU with 2 amps, 6x9s under rear seats, 10" sub to go in boot (work in progress)

1999 Paul Smith jobbie, as you can see in my avatar (mini posing with authentic welsh castle ruins). You would not believe the arguments over what colour the car actually is, so I compromise and call it burple - kinda blue, kinda purple.
