Wow - it's been a year since you got it on the road. That's gone quick. I wish I had more time to spend on my conversion lately.

I also blame my Dad for me being 6' 1" - not really the optimum height for driving a Mini.

Thanks guys

Haha not planning a trip to tassie just yet Rhys, but if you are over in
vic i'll take you for a spin anytime


Thanks Brad, i'm on the mend

Well i had the blast of my life when i took a Aston martin DB9 for a spin

I come across this guy from england who is selling up and returning to GB,i went round to buy some cheap(good Quility) tools and i went in the mini and ended up taking him for a drive. So after loosing his bodily functions he has vowed to build one when he returns to the mother country.
This went further as he made the offer if i let him drive the mini he'd let me drive the aston, something i could'nt refuse
With his eyes as big as dinner plates he drove the mini with a bit of gusto but weary of the torque steer, and we got back he said although the aston is luxurious,quick and stylish the mini is three times as much fun.
Pretty happy with that
Hers some pics







PS the aston was unbelievable
