Just bought my first mini. A 1992/3 Italian Job. Can anyone tell me anything about it? Engine size etc? No plans as yet beyond a new engine mount bush (clunky).

Hey everyone, just moved into my new home and finally got some space to work on my mini. Owned him now for nearly two years just ticking him over! Not sure yet of what it'll become but hoping to tidy it up, maybe start hill climbing. Has anyone got any advice on easy mods that may help me on my way? Thanks

Hi
I have 2 minis - one 1998 Cooper Si, and one heavily modded 1984 1380 MED stage 5 engined City.
The 1984 car cost me £15000 to convert 9 years ago - I've done 4500 miles in it since.
It's quite quick ( 105 bhp at the wheels_ but I'm considering supercharging it this year.
I bought the Cooper Si for my son to share 8 years ago. It's been comprehensively bodily rebuilt on two occasions (due to rust worm) and has been a really gret cruising car (unlike my homebuilt which is incredibly noisy)

Hi my names mark from kendal cumbria, I drive a 92' cooper spi which is currently off the road as I was hoping to restore her to to her former glory. Sadly, the body is plagued with rust and really the best option would be to completely re-shell the car. As heritage shells out of my price range, I was wondering if anyone has a second hand one they want rid of?? If not, maybe recomendations?? thanks
