My Minis not on the road yet I'm in the last throws of the restoration,
5 years on! I've just ordered a needle BDP to get me in the right ball
park before having a rolling road tune. The needle is as recommended by
the Winsu program. I borrowed a meter from work and the current BDL goes
weak above 2000 revs.

After getting it drivable I've got the door cards to finish and final
fixing for the MOT.

I will also have a bit of work to do on my son's Mini he reversed into
his mates Suzuki Vitara. New boot lid required!

It used to look like this

Well Turbo Jo, a few of us will probably be meeting up for the
forthcoming MiniWorld Action Day @ Castle Combe and it does look like
i'll be attending now as my tickets are in the post!

So roll on Castle Combe!

After that there is the Issigonis Centenary Day at the
Heritage-Motor-Centre, Gaydon and that should be worth a look too,
especially since the BINI's been banned from it!  Ironically though the
muppets at BMW have launched a BINI with a centenary badge on the front
featuring Issigonis's face!   Cruel but very funny that it's being
excluded though all the same!

Taffy

Has the amount of traffic (excluding all the irrelevant Troll stuff)
reduced recently? Has everyone sorted their Minis? Has everyone decided
on their plans for their Minis?
