Ive done a few bits and bobs which come out alright.. If the mini ends up staying i want to wrap it matt white... if you can get the vinyl cheap enough and do it yourself you could have a different colour car totally for £150..

Hmmmm, I gave this thought once but then thought, nah... too much wrapping to do, but the more I think about it now the more I want to do it again... A mk1 can't be that hard, it's practically a box!  :grin:

Do it :evil:

Well i don't want to get people too excited, likely to be next year and likely to be 3D carbon... not sure.

OK... obviously a crowd pleaser would be to do it judging by the above.... need $$$$$$! oh and get it tidy and running sweet first...  All in good time.  :wink:

Liam you found me... and I wasn't using it for years but am back on it now.  Also the link is in my sig.  :grin:

Spent a good while last night playing with the motor to get it running as well as I could.... Jamrock sent me a great "how to fix" link for the WUR which I have since posted in the Mk1 Maintenance section.  Going to see if I can put it to use soon and sort mine.

Cannot get the inner CVJ sorted out properly in time for Volks Fest  It's all cleaned up and done up very tight but running on 5 bolts instead of 6, the thread for the 6th appears to be shot and needs rethreading!  :sad:

Did 30 miles of varied driving with no issues.  Drives very well actually.  I'm having to tolerate very poor running when cold which is giving me pretty good performance when warm. She appears to be cruising well at motorway speeds which is what I want if I'm going to make it on Friday.

Made some adjustments to the exhaust and fitted the replacement windscreen spat/trim.  Might try and wack some paint on the drivers door tomorrow if the weathers OK.... 

Car's going to look rough as fook but if it makes it there and back, I'll be over the moon.  Post some pictures tonight.

Oh and a quick thanks to Madone_si for sending me some useful tips regarding the CVJ. :afro:
