How sad am I... I like it!!  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

Not saying I'd buy it though. The wife would kill me!!! I've promised that after having a Range Rover Classic as a rolling project for 2 years I'd get something that requires less work and start on the other project on the drive.

I've got a 1993 Mini Cooper which needs lots of TLC. I can't bear to see it go to scrap as it's got a 1380cc engine which is sooo torquey it's unbelievable! It's just such a grin to drive!!

I think the main reason she wants me to start on it is because it's hers!!! It's only been stood up for 4 years now!

's more like it. It wouldn't move when the lights changed with all that metal and a weedy asthmatic 6 pot in there. ;)

Mate of mine had a Westfield with a 4.3 Rover V8 that had nitrous and a ratchet shifting auto box. He had a ticket from Santa Pod from the previous owner where it had done a 1/4 mile in 9.4 IIRC. :o

Someone made him an offer he couldn't refuse for the engine so he put a standard 4.2 back in. Last I heard he was buying nitrous bits for that engine. ::)
