Like many going through a mid life crisis I bought a toy to go along with all my fords, was at a pals garage the other day and he knew I liked these so he dangled the carrot and I bit

dyno'd at 202hp and had a few upgrades on engine and is highest spec out there, when weather improoves I will no doubt be having a play and the odd track day

 

Hmm! Yet another geriatric boy racer. Looks good though.
Cheers, John

 

thanks john just wish I had the money when I was younger to enjoy the cars more

 

Strip, cage and track it mate, great little toys

 

Ha ha ha thats quality.

 

Ive driven a few of these and they handle very well.

 

Love it mate ..very nice .

 

Looks good

 

Cracking cars Steve, go carts these little bad boys.

 

had a little blast in it and it really put a smile on my face, plan is to track it and leave the fords for the shows

 

You joining Passion BMW now Steve

 

dont go there grandad , strictly a play thing

 

nice..

 

Bet its put the 170 to the test.

 

prefer to drive the 170 if honest but to hoon around the mini has the grin factor but it wont be seeing much in the way of normal streets as it set to become a track car for me and the kids

 

Lovely car for your daughter lol

 

used to like you

 

Lot's of people did

 

If it hasn't been done already upgrade the brakes before you take it on track. Standard R53 brake set up is not that great at normal road speeds let alone track work.

unless it already has upgraded brakes if it's an official JCW version..

 

Looks good, bet its quite lively with 202bhp.

 

its a real one, and my mate already uprated them to 4 pots and bigger discs, even chucked in a set of coopers s wheels so I can paint them silly colours , sourcing a cage is in hand and afew more little trinkets and it will be ready

 

Looks nice mate

 

mainly for the kids J as my daughter is into fast cars, so thought best way was to get her onto a track rather than the a41

 

Very sensible Steve.
