Its a bit of a work in progress at the moment and have got a few plans for it but I just need to get some money first and it just cost me £640 to get her through her MOT.

Looks nice and tidy. 
But £640 for an MOT is not good news. What did it need? What's the story with the headlamps? they look interesting.

It was moslty welding. But it also needed 4 new ball joints. The headlamps are angel eyes so theirs a circle around the normal bulb this just replaces the side light.

Right well its been a while since I'v posted anything on here. Heres what she looks like now.
Not that much difference. Manly just cosmetic things. In a few weeks she'll be coming off the road to have a the front end and rear valance replaced and then money depending she'll be re-sprayed.
I'v got a project thread over on TMF incase anyone wants to have a look.
Cheers.

Did someone mention Tadley? My Dad lives next door to Tadley. When the Imps up and running we should organise a meet up!

Hi everyone. Its been a while yea its Tadley just out side Basingstoke. At the moment the mini is sorn and in lots of bits while I give her a resto.
This is my current car. Alice.
Just to do something I tad different to her I decided to sticker bomb a few bits.
Shes also got a little down & out sticker on the rear window.
And a custom Basingstoke Ring Road Sticker.
Anyway thanks for reading. I would love to hear what you think about it.
