Easiest way to fix it? Go for a drive in the Mini down some Mini roads....
Guarantee you'll like the Mini again for the next 3 weeks! ;D

Sad to hear that KP is not behaving.  Even sadder to hear that you're thinking of selling. It's a fact of life that running any type of car today is prohibitively expensive, be it a Classic Mini or a modern euroblob. As you suggested, put KP into storage and let the train take the strain. When the pennies become available spend a little bit on KP slowly getting all those little (annoying) jobs done. Ask around (on here) for replacement parts if you can't afford new. Before you know it KP will be fixed up and raring to go with you piloting Him with a massive grin on your face. |
