bit dirty here but had just done 400mile

Looks a lot like the car in my avatar... :)

Who has that now? I recognise the plate!

I still have it

Shattered a dream now I always thought yours was an original

I thought I knew the ERP from somewhere

Went to town on the conversion though! Bee-sting aerial and everything Is it central though?

The first car I owned (I bought as knackered mk3 b4 this, which got scrapped).

I went to do the head gasket and got a bit carried away, that was about 3-4 years ago. She leaves the confines of my parents garage today and moves to my unit.. so the work can continue (hopefully).

From all the way back in 2003!

Weird thing is, after all that time I still have a 1.0L Fox

bloody el, chill at the breadvan comment guys, jesus.

every true dubber starts with a bready.

True!

@ Neil, did you buy your breadvan around March 2007? I swear I saw it advertised on ebay around that time. Up near Brum? My flashbulb memory is kicking in now!

nah mate my mum owned it before me, then i had it, Sold it to some kid. Who later sold it on a few months later. As he couldnt rat it!

The kid i sold it to lowered it and it had a bra on. Would be around march 2007 mind!

My first car, Astra 1.7td which I thought was a nice big engine to start with at 17 lol. Was a cracking car tbf :) Would have liked to have done more to it!

I love these threads... i think there should be a car history thread!

My first car was a S1 106 1.4 8v XSI... 105bhp in less than a tonne... was a lot of fun! Only pics i got of it were the pics used by the guy who was selling it... the lexus lights went! It ended up with head work and a cam and about 120bhp. I loved it and miss it so much!!!

I quickly sold this as i broke it all the time and got my Ibiza Cupra at 18!

I like those rims , what are they? cheers =D

Still have it, but it will be going soon- back to stock now

Had this for a year with not one problem

Yep, perfectly. I didn't do the drilling but we measured the roof about five times to make totally sure

Here's mine....

Was pink when my dad bought her for me on my 17th birthday but was riding my vespa at the time so spent a year making it look good....

somewhere in between she had some heart surgery and had some new shoes....

and currently looks like this..... (fresh out of the paint shop hence no bumpers yet)

will prob have her for another 5 years too

Seeing all these minis, and looking at the pics of my old 1 are badly making me want one again.

Baker Boy, your mini is amazing. What's the colour called?

All my friend said i should have bought a mini, then i could just pretend i was going fast.

i will show mine too then.... my second car:

and my very first set of wheels... ever:

you would be surprised what a 1098 can do

Kat, the Hornet is beautiful. Love the colour!

you should never have sold it b-shaw thats why!! ha

cheers cutmore :) its actually a renault colour, at the time is was there newest colour for there sports range but it hadnt been seen/used yet as the swatch i was choosing from had just literally come out and renault had just sent it to the bodyshop so i was like "yep ill take that one!" and when i saw it for the 1st time when it came out of the bodyshop i was soo happy with it.. looks quality in the sunshine :)

I know.

I regret it at times. But it really was a big mess, ideally it needed a re-shell. Which at 16 wasn't happening haha.

yeah true, its just soo much effort re-shelling tbh sometimes, considering what it is, if it was like a cooper s or summat then its worth doing but for your norm run of the mill mini it just aint worth it is it. i had a 1275gt clubby the same, i ended up scrapping that aswell, i cut it up myself which even though i hadnt spent much time on it, it still pained me to do it :( but needs must and all that.. was waay to far gone aswell tbh, would have cost £800 in panels!!
