Anto, will be coming to the next Mini meeting on the Wednesday, can take you for a burn. And yeah that rule must be changed at some stage. Mine was the opposite, had been registered in my name for the four previous years and then they want me to prove I own it. What made it possibly sticky is that all my paperwork went up in the Canberra fires!

And yeah Peddro this was the best bit, putting on the rego sticker. The end of a long journey. Now I can enjoy it without stress.

Next step (and this will probably be next summer) is make a new turbo manifold and bolt on a T25... :twisted:

Cheers

Matt

Someone needs to bring their starlet mini to the QLD muster so i can convince the missus how good it really is. I'll even provide accomodation and a car hole to park it in

Nav, Your going about it the wrong way.

Convince her that it was her idea in the first place, and then everything will just fall into order.

It is hard for them to release the purse strings - is it not!!
