Looking good, especially in the flesh and I spotted you driving along the prom at Porthcawl today. Got a real eye full of your awesome looking car whilst enjoying a coffee on the prom. Saw you driving towards Rest Bay and back again.

1. Gar, thanks, give me a break on the rear interior, got to spend hours doing yoga and pilates before I try to get myself squeezed into the back of my Mini to start my scrubbing duties!!!
2. Taffy, thanks mate, see my not in the "spotted section" you should have jumped out in front of me, the brakes are awesome so I would have stopped and had a coffee with you... PS I'm a bit too old for "cruising" in Porthcawl but couldn't resist the temptation!
3. Jamie, plenty of power from the alternator thanks mate, a job well done! Thank You, will call you soon as I need to get the RC's running .....again!! and you can have agood look over my progress to date on PPN
4. Dai, Beaulieu always falls on my sons Birthday so not sure! Thanks for the canine reference!!
5. Cheers again Phil!
6. JC...having had a good blast and seen how great my updates look, that cheque book will will need an extra 0 or 2 added......
Now where is that Pilates Video.......

Hi Folks...here's an update.... STOP PRESS...just go a set of 5 original magnesium NOS Minilites...33% lighter than the alloy ones ..good for speed and a super sexy period look!! Disaster strikes........Parcelforce collect my new magnesium minilites from the vendor, take them to their depot and promptly LOSE THEM.............. Boy am I mad mad mad mad mad mad MAD!!!! They were an absolute bargain a quarter of what they would cost new!! Some SOB has nicked 'em and I bet they don't even know how much they are worth!!!!!

That really sucks Stuart! They should be made to pay full compensation for the cost of a new set, not that you could perhaps get a replacement set. I'm gutted for you and for PPN too! jc

Cheers Guys, at the moment they are only willing to pay limited compensation, but we've thretaened them with the police and things have started to speed up!

Hi Folks, Well as you have probably read on here my Mini was sold yesterday, I delivered it to its new owner (another Phil) in Hartlepool...a 620 mile round trip with the mini on a trailer..a very long day, and sad to see it go but it's going to a good home, a guy who has had Coopers and Lotus's just like me so it will be very well looked after..... Now, not being one to not have a weekend car to fettle, whilst I look for a decent Mark I Cooper S... So for the time being, this is what I will be driving at weekends....Sorry JC not joining you in the MGB club.. Have a look..... More pictures and a description can be found here.... www.neweraimports.com/soldcarDetails.jsp?carId=382Not quite a Mini I know, but it will do for the timebeing....and before you ask the Spolier is being replaced with the original item.......wouldn't be seen dead with a spoiler like the one thats currently fitted... Stuart

Looks to be a bit of a monster you've got yourself there. Should see those Evo's and Scooby's off though.
