yeah, no money is worth selling my coupe for tbh.

When my 1st mini went, i actually cried haha. and i hadnt even driven it.

lols, gotta G it, G is the future. fuck 16v's n carbs

Haha better than someone else writing it off though ey .. Now your cars gone eric can we just clog this thread up with chatting shit ..

Well..

I'm not gonna say no more ;) lmao

yeah, itd take a crash or something serious for me to get rid haha.

Even if it sits in storage for years and years.

by the time yours is out toby you could put it in a museum as it would be the last mk2f left ..

Joke XD x

LMAO!!!

i mean helping on the phone, fair enough.

Going out to help them at half 12... no chance.

Should have recovery sorted if your buying a car like this tbh, common sense.

yeah, apparently the alternators packed up lol.

the battery drained on it so they put a battery from their mates car in it and it was fine, got down the motorway a bit and now that battery has run out too.

theres nothing i can do though obvs i have no car now ect so i cant take a spare alternator :s

Did it go to a randomer or a mate of a mate etc ??

Least then you know it wont get abused .. too much :(

randomer, he seemed nice enough though, but he crashed his last car so hopefully hes learnt his lesson and takes it easy

Don't worry mate.

I'll take it easy.

I didn't crash into the back of my mates Volvo after being towed back home (in the pitch black and rain with no lights or wipers) from London to Essex so I'm being careful with this one.

It's a lovely car and I trust you didn't know there was a problem with the alternator, I'm just glad it's nothing more serious.

I'll keep you informed with her 'progress' if you like mate? I know what it's like to get 'attached' to a car.

I promise, I'll treat her well.

She's getting a new alternator tomorrow and I'm going to get her a filter for the carbs along with new oil and plugs soon.

That sir, makes you a bit of a prick.

nice one that will be cool, i hope you enjoy it dude! if you put in some work, I'm sure it will be a great little car!

cheers mate

Blue one is now mine, driven it about 2 miles so far, it needs some work, need to put my accuspark ignition points in it and i think it has a warped disk.

Old style brakes are AWFUL LOL

but its YOURS and you know how much that means mate :)

Rat it!

hang on, which is the mk2 that had rot issues? or is that someone else? I thought it was a blue mk2?

That was the silver mk2 eric bought to replace the red one, turned out red one was better so kept that and scrapped/broke the silver one.

Blue one iirc isent YET his?

Good memeory lol
