think the pick up is rare, cos you see quite a few estates and rarely see a pick up one day i wish to have my clubby, a pickup and i would so love to have a van!!! absolutely love them, they are both a bit pricey mind. but what great mini's, their sumin else  one day....  |

haa im the exact same as you!!
im on my first mini from bieng obsessed from the age of 4 and my plans for keeping it pretty standard went out the window within two mins of having my hands on the old girl!!
shes now being tranceformed into a fast road/rally car! so that one dream car down all i have now is an:
original cooper s
pick-up
van
clubby
and hopefully the old man will get his grubby paws on an estate or traveller!!

Yeah vans are becoming pretty rare these days, can spend 90's Coop money on a poor condition one, but how cool would it be to have a job driving a Mini Van? Pick Ups are only good for rear engines, or Suzuki 4x4 conversions, as the stuff you put in the back of a pick up gets wet. There is talk mind of Vans/Estates&Pick ups handling better than the saloon. Oh by the way Lawson won't sell his van, I've tried  .... |

deffo first thing i buy is land!!! not for a house but for the biggest garage i can build to house my babys! and then the list of car is endless but the mini has prize position!!
yer i seen Lawsons van was in a pretty bad state but its coming fair play! ahh i dunno tho lol im torn between keeping it original and putting some crazy engine in the back!
so i guess id just have to get 2;)
oh how i wish i had money!!!:L

Definatly!! would have to make like a showroom garage for them and also a proper garage to restore them im putting a vtec in my clubby soon... cant wait. fairplay you can get a tonne out of a 1100 in a mini but with this engine going in.. cant believe it myself. would like to do a rear engined pick up, with a crazy massive engine!!!! and also original. you cant go wrong its all money =/ dreams can come true ( all my earnings are gona go to minis. get a van sleep in the back) :L would also love to make a mini into a bed or into a seat or sumin.... would be so cool! |
