With all that stuff in there you'd think it would hide the oil leaks better.

If I were to get my Mini again, I would skip the aircon.

I would love to have the space in the engine bay back.

Do you love the engine bay space in summer?

Maybe it's a different world when you don't have vinyl seats, i wouldn't know but i'd trade engine bay space for aircon any day (from a vinyl seat POV)

Aircon? needed in a Mini?
ROFL...

If your Oz Mini with windup windows is hot, it's just because you painted the roof the wrong colour. :P

Rovers need A/C though in hot climates, because they couldn't work out how to fit the Oz quarter vent dynamic A/C vents. :wink:

The roof is almost black (not my doing, bring back the brown i say, wallet says different), are your seats super sticking sweat machine vinyl or something softer that breeeeeeathes?

But the quarter vents and rear windows make an uber wind tunnel > hot air :D

Still takes awhile for the air con to kick in and get things cools. Seats get hot no matter what. If it's really hot. I take the Rangie, come to think of it, if it's really cold I take the Rangie... Why the hell do I own a Mini??

Oh yeah.... They're cooooool in in so many other ways than just temperature.

I can assure you that no amount of air con is going to cool your seats that have gotten hot from sitting in the sun :)
