Nah, but then again it has all the "toys" that I need. Goto their site and see what it does. It also has things like indicators, lights, oil warning etc

So Heavy Duty Tie-Bars from MiniSpares. I have used these on all of my Minis so far, 1 set for the front, 1 set for the rear. Useing the MiniSpares Fast Road Bushes which should be good enough for me. Only road use with the odd trackday maybe!

Apologies for the thread resurrection... but i've just bought this 

 

I'll upload some pics once i figure out how, but needless to say it's not in the best of health.... currently without engine, sitting on random Alfa Romeo 15" wheels that are too wide, with the wrong rear wings waiting to go on (thats going to take some sorting) and suspension thats seen better days.

 

the plan is to get it up and running and then treat it as a kind of rolling resoration.  i'lll try to update as things go along if it is of interest.

 

cheers!

..looks like that could be a lot of fun 

hopefully. its getting a 998 engine, nothing special, just the usual stage 1 type stuff. im hoping with it being so light the performance will still be good. the main thing is to get it roadworthy again, which hopefully ill achieve before november, as i want to enter my daughter in her first trial in it. and me of course!

[KTS]

Quite a challenge then, in both senses !  good luck
