hi guys, im Gaz i joined last night! i own a 1995 Sidewalk SE but dont drive it at the moment as im rebuilding it dont have many big plans for it as yet as i just want to get it back on the road and driving it. going to be doing a few mods from standard though, will be fitting the sportspack and 13" wheels, probably go for the classic buckets from corbeau and maybe a bolt-in rollcage. im leaving the standard 1275i engine in which has a pipercross induction kit and maniflow front section with play mini backbox. im thankfully not keeping the original colour because it was a bit too girly for me so im going for the BMW mini purple/green flip paint with pearlescent white roof!

i will post some pictures up of it when i can get round to it and when its back running il definately wheel it out for some meets

I have a 1968 Cooper called Gracey in Snowberry White with black roof and group 2 arches. nice set of wide Mini Lights to set her off, she's a bit of a make do and mend at the moment but have some plans to bring her up to scratch in the coming months.

Taken her out a few times since buying her four or five weeks ago and she is bringing back some great memories of my first car which was also a Mini

Hi, I'm Gareth and I have an '02 Mini One in yellow.

It wasn't my choice of car, I got it through pure chance but I love it!

It needs bodywork as the previous (female) owner knocked it quite a bit (I'll post pics tomorrow).

It seems to be the very basic model with only air-con as any "luxury", it has no rev counter or alloys which brings me on to a few questions someone here may be able to answer... Can BMW fit a rev counter? Roughly how much will that cost?

Also... any tips on boosting its performance... cheap but effective?
