Congrats Arbee, I simply love the Mini's owned my first one in 2003. Total of 4 since then. Now I only have my 2009, R56, JCW left. If you dont mind I can post pic's of My R53 Cooper S, JCW I used to own:thumbs: I can feel sleepy behind the wheel of the 135i but never in a Mini, it's awesome

Hopefully we will welcome you soon.

Nope, havent had the chance to. Hopefully soon.

Arbee why dont you just plastidip or wrap the chrome of the stock bottom grille just for it to blend in for the time being?

Willy you missed the Pepper white one that much hey :rollsmile:

No prob. Have you considered fitting a pulley in future?

 

[Arbee]

Lots of plans for the little zwee. However, when I bought it, it came with a problem. A 20k problem, power steering pump and pipes. Its intermittent now and not as bad. But I have to invest some time as I want to diy it.

Car is running and going strong though. Apart from the occasional fight with the steering.

 

[Willy]

Abree, pm me a reminder, i had mine fixed in pretoria for r3500 a few years back. I did a diy clean but it didn't work real pain to work with it.

Im sure I remember Willy mentioning around here that its not so much sorting out the power steering issue.

But all the best, hopefully it turns out to be special like that 330d:thumbs:

Just saw he beat me to it:slow:

 

[Arbee]

Yeah... Im quite ocd about cars. Its just been a busy year. Willy, I would appreciate that info.
