There was a turquoise old shape mini in the mag last month with a 2.0 red top running on SBD TB's with 200bhp at the wheels! Did anybody see it?
The owner didnt know what time he was hitting 0-62 in but he reckoned about 5ish.

Lots of people dont like minis, and its true most of teh owners are a little weird. But if u ever get teh chance to go to a mini show, its well wroth it.
Seen everything from 2.0litre Vtecs (with the honda dash inside (complete dash, not just dials)) to a twin carbed, lengthend mini, to a convertable, mega mega wide arch fliup painted 4.0litre V8!
Its deffo an experience mini shows.
Theres a bloke called matt with a 1.4 Metro Turbo enigne, and at full tilt, he's running nearly 225bhp!!!!!!! Mental machine!

my first car was a 1ltr min city and it was utter crap - its brakes failed (master cylinder just disintegrated) and one day the indicators just packed up - not good quality cars - fun tho.
