nah was just a 1.6VTi, not the fastest thing in the world but it was hassle free, pretty nippy, but it was great to drive! and i loved the engine!

all other cars i've had seem boring to drive compared to it

anywhooz! the same again for me please!

The overhang at the back just looks a little too big to me.

Nice idea though, at least it will be reliable i guess if its a nsx underneath!

That mini was just a standard 998 that i bought for her to learn to drive in.
Thats my ex girlfriend, her name was holly (well still is i guess, lol)

Ive got another mini with a vauxhall engine in that im currently rebuilding for 500bhp though.

I love minis, Ive so got these two at the moment:

I part-ex'd it against my Q plater 3 door.

The lude was starting to get a bit long in the tooth to be honest as well, 146K on the clock, 80K of those done by me, mainly up to the limiter in each gear.

I really liked it but couldnt justify keeping it and getting the cossie cause i have a volvo, 3 novas and 4 minis at the moment as well, and 8 cars is plenty for one person really, lol

BB4 equals chassis code not engine code, the BB4 still has the H22A
