Still dont know if its running right.. cba to get petrol, and the drivers door handle is still shagged.. once its roadworthy Im soo tempted to sell it, fed up of Minis already

Thats when the "Fun" really starts !!!!!!! ;D

Everyone says that, and then they either attend a show with it or go in a convoy with other Minis and they soon start planning their next mod

Trouble is now your stuck in between a rock and hard place... Its a hell of a lot of work to convert to suicide doors properly, and its going to be difficult to get another door handle.. and im guessing it will also be a pain swapping back to normal...

If you get a rubbishy one (pitted chrome etc) on ebay it may be worth painting both handles. at least that way when it is road legal you wont be thinking 'urgh it needs a new handle..' because it will look half tidy

Yeah, I'll be honest just after I bought Pac Man I wondered why I bought another Mini, then I popped with Lawson up to KFC, and the whole time I was grinning from ear to ear and I wanst even driving!

I actually thought the handle not working from the outside was an MOT failure, but apparently not? Think I might of sorted my handle problem too, ordered a new boss from MiniSpares, £7.32 posted.. Just need some petrol in it and hope my manifold doesnt leak..
