sutty2006 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 At least if that breaks down you can walk to your collection point then on your way back, pass the broken Corsa, laugh and point hysterically.. chodspeed. groovylee, AnnoyingPentium and GrumpiusMaximus 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sutty2006 Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 These minis seam to be like cockroaches. They’re everywhere now. Guy at work bought his mrs a petrol one a few months back, then sold his duster and bought himself a diesel one. Shame he didn’t research the chain issues but he isn’t that clever when it comes to buying cars despite being a van mechanic. All the best with it. Let’s hope it serves you well!

mk2_craig Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 Great buy! What are the rubber seals like around the back end? They’re kippered on my wife’s 2010 car but most things seem to be more robust on later examples of the earlier generation cars. groovylee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inconsistant Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 That looks like a great example of one of these. Wife loves ours. I do too, they’re an absolutely fab car. I reckon convertibles are generally better looked after than the roofy Minis. That’s got to be a mega late model R52 on an 08 plate? Hope you enjoy it! groovylee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen you can get repair kits on eBay if it comes to it 👍 mk2_craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
