Woody

Thanks everyone. Ill be back one day, but so long for now.

Sold!

Mods please lock thanks

Ive priced it to sell & taking into account the price for 2 new tyres, I think/thought the price was right

The car is provisionally sold. Awaiting payment on Friday

Ladies & Gentlemen,

The time has come to say goodbye. After 7 loving years of ownership, I've decided to sell up.

I can honestly say I've never loved a car more & it will be sad seeing her go, but needs must (Wedding!)

So here we go....

2003 Sunset UK GT,

Rays alloys (Sprayed black)

Orange leather heated seats

Bose sound system

Mobile phone bluetooth adaptor

Boot cargo net

Upgraded LED rear lights

Zunsport front grill

Nismo V1 (Genuine) rear spoiler (black on sunset)

Likwid Art red Z rear & side badges

Falken 452 tyres all around

Japspeed K1, y-pipe back, exhaust system

D1 Spec throttle controller

83600miles

6 months tax

Mot until December

The bad points...

The two front tyres are close to legal limit and will need replacing

The rear spoiler has a hairline crack on the base on the passenger's side (where someone decided to use it to open & close the bootlid!!!)

The drivers seat is worn on the lumbar support.

Has a few interior scratches.

The paintwork has a few chips and marks, but find an 11 year old car that hasn't.

I cant find the receipts for the past 2 services. But be assured these have been completed, as I always get a service with my MOT.

£4595 ovno

Please feel free to ask any questions, as I've bound to have missed something.

Hmmm If only you had the 4! Tempted!

You clearly didn't get a good look at mine! Mines the same! The joys of living by the sea! Lol

That'll of been me mate. I'm guessing that was you coming over the round-a-bout? Sounded nice, if it was!

She will love it bud. Fantastic little cars.

Things to look out for would be the old tin worm (rust). Classics are notorious for it. Worst places are boot pan, floor, door bottoms and subframes. Rear subs more than front. So get down on the floor and give it a good poke (oooo err). The mini suffers from bad earthing problems, so check all the straps in the engine bay and boot.

If your looking to do any engine mods for power then I suggest going for an older one with an A series engine. If not the more modern classics (1995ish) have mpi engines, 1.3 usually. They have enough power and are more reliable than the older models.

Lastly I would do some serious research into the car you are buying, like you would any other. A lot of minis have been rebuilt from scratch. So check the vin plates match the log, as some will have been 'altered' to get cheaper tax.

I think that's everything.

Anymore questions, just drop me a PM

Cheers Woody

from one Daz to another

As Lexx said keep an eye on the NE section for up and coming meets and events

No problem at all mate, happy to help

Just be careful with it in these up and coming wet and icey conditions

Got mine gloss black

Depends how good you are with photoshop. But yeh it can be done

btw wait until the woman drivers on this forum read your coment about thier parking

If its too dark, you will be pulled and fined. Vinyl would be better, then you can pull the film off when you get pulled. Personally I wouldnt do it. It looks naff and your bound to get pulled by an arse of a copper who just wants to pick every little thing wrong on your car.

Or....pm R35LEE

(Woody I hope the run home was a bit more adventurous for you!)

Yeh I quite enjoyed myself. Alot more pacey and the odd overtaking . One car didnt seem to like my overtaking skill very much

Hope none of us get unwanted news

Thanks for a good day. Nice to put names to faces. Hopefully we will bring more than 3 from the NE on the next one

Just got back from the run.

First things first, big thanks to Neal for organising the routes. Some fantastic roads and great views. Shame some of it was spoiled by typical Sunday drivers!!! But when they were taken care of the driving was great .

Secondly, big thanks to Vik for organising the pub and food. The place was very nice and the food was just as good. Nice to meet some of the Scottish lot, a bunch of nice guys and gals indeed. Sorry we didnt stay long, but football called

Sad to end on a bad note but.... (Excluding Al and Lee) Where was everyone from the North East??? 3 cars turned out! A very poor show indeed. The Scots put us to shame.

I expected people to drop out, but 3 cars

Anyway. Thanks for everyone who came. Hopefully we can do it again sometime and we will bring a few more people

Cheers mate, spoke to him

9.30am at Wolviston services if anybody wants to convoy up. Ill be stopping for petrol and then going

Bump

Its only a matter of time before we see corsas and saxos with exhausts sticking 10ft in the air

Yeh thats where its supposed to be
