How do you like it? I absolutely adore mine with the upgraded tubes. Such an amazing sound for such a small price.

Significant to me, as it's my first car.

Significant to me, as i've always wanted a car, since the age of 5!

Significant to me, as I spent alot of my savings on it.

Significant to me, as it's so cheap to insure with the classic car loophole!

Significant to me, as I love it.

Significant to me, as i'm busy with it!

Significant to me, as i'm no longer interested in anything else. Little money will be spent on headphones next year, unlike how I planned for for when I had bought a car!

Significant to me, as it's all registered in my name, unlike my friends rich parents, who own newer (but slower!) cars, but registed in their parents names!

/\ very nice too

congrats - minis are great, nice and low to the ground, always feels you are going a lot faster than you are, nice trunk too for your victims, personally i went with the vw beatle and removed the passenger seat for long cross state missions

a VW Beetle is small and girly.

The mini is just a sign of a confident man.

oh so people though i was taking the mickey? interesting, oh contrare, i am a huge mini fan and have owned three since teenager - the wv beetle was serial killer humour - i am a volvo driver now sadly!

i remember when i met my future girlfriend, i was driving my mini cooper and she had some posh merc, she later said it was refreshing to see someone confident enough to go round in a mini and that i obviously didnt suffer from trying to compensate for small **** syndrome - heh

Ahh, don't worry, when it's running, hopefully after just a new battery, and insurance is paid for, early next year, it'll be getting the final bits (hopefully by then i'll have done the first bits I want to do

).

Hoping to add Sportspack arches, and wheels, which should make it alot meaner, and less girly

- currently looking girly, with the stickers. A gay fella owned it before me you see

Should eventually look a bit more like this:

(Like the late MPI Sportspack Rover Mini's, but easier to work on myself without fuel injection, complex ECU's, and new fangled stuff... and farrrr cheaper

)

Should be pretty nippy to with the 1275cc transplant done by the previous owner... A standard 1275 in this clip, flying along! Made me beam ear to ear, as I havn't been in, or driven my car yet (17 in January), and was pleased to know it should be quick - well, for a first car, and a £650 (currently spent, will be more like £1200 when i'm done, but still.) car

My other hobby is knife collecting, and I just purchased this limited edition RC-3 from Rat Cutlery. Only 200 are being made, each being individually numbered for the "Rat Pack' members. Mine will be #36.

I'll be getting it 1st part of December. Its a xmas gift to myself.
