Looks much nicer than mine. Especially the engine bay!

Have you taken it out to a track or motorkhana/autocross or anything yet?

Skyliner 07-08-2004 03:55 AM

not yet.... not really any where you can do that in Denmark. Everything thats a litlle bit of fun and have something to do with cars is illegal :(
The only racing i do in my mini is the daily drive :wink:

It's a Mini Cooper 1300, with Special exaust and air filter, small engine tweaks, kevlar brake pads, quickshift, BEcker radio with CD, Sparco bucket seats, wood dashboard.. etc etc

It as 12x6 deep dish rims and Gr5 Wheel arches.

And it is a FUN to drive!!

Unfortunately... Its not mine anymore... sold it few months ago and looking forward into a Cooper Mk1, of 1960's

And, JABBA, as you can see, we could have a classics section overhere!! :)

Since you don't own a Mini anymore, the official number is still four. :mrgreen:
