It's registered.
I've owned this mini for over 7 years and now it is finally registered.
More than once I've thought about dumping the whole project and it has ended up coming in waaaay over budget but now it's on the road and driving and all that is forgotten... :lol:

Big thanks to everyone who told me to keep at it when I was going to throw it all away about 12 months ago. (All the non mini people in the world were pushing me the other way.)

Anyway. Keep an eye out for a blue and white clubbie terrorising the streets of Melbourne... 8)

Well done mate.

I've owned my van for about 12 years now. I bought it as a rolling shell and built it up as a VERY on again off agian project. It's only been within the last 6 months that is been painted and has a motor sitting in it.
I'm glad I've keep going with it. I've waited a long time to drive this baby!!
My old 850 is long overdue for a rebuild so as soon as the van's done that's what the next project will be.

Enjoy it mate!

Cheers,
Steiny.
