So, i´ve been around here for some years but never got to open a topic.
Been a Mini lover since forever and had a red 04 plate back in 2014 that sold after had the first baby, regreted as f*#& but thats life. After that had a couple of cars and got around a swiss R53 just for track use in 2018, i will post some progress here but its far from being finished.
I have some friends with Mini and some are here and this year the opportunity appeared and got my new daily. Its a BRG 02 plate with 150k kms, SAT NAV, parking sensors and so on.
It was a lady car so its pretty neglected, a lot of scratches inside and so on.
The car makes a rattle in cold but it seems waterpump or SC, i have a Teflon one to put so no worries. The waterpump will be changed along with timing chain and a lot of others things.
I will start with some big maintenance, 17% pulley on the Teflon SC, DAVE F intake, plugs. Wanting Pro-Alloy TMIC and headers. Had OBX on the red one, where can we find them now?
Thinking in AP coilovers with SIlver Project top mounts, R56 brakes and some BBS style wheels.
Hope to be around some time.
Cheers
