I own two minis: Spade who you have seen and Saffron.

Saffron started life as a 1275 MPI Cooper - unfortunately, 2 weeks after I bought her she decided she didn't like her crankshaft anymore and snapped it - completely!

She is still lovely though, I love both my minis, even though they are completely different to drive.

Spade is a modified 1.0 mini city. He has a stage one kit with a pipercross airfilter, Cobra bucket seats, walnut dash ( at the mo) Sony Cd player with JBL 6x9s and 5x7s.

He has 13 minilight wheels on 1&3/4 inch spacers!! He has grooup 5 arches and these STILL don't cover his tyres properly. He does look really cool when you are behind him though!!

When she snapped her crank, she damaged the block too. I couldn't find a reasonably priced MPI block so I have put a carb engine in her for noe - I may change it back at some point - we will see.

She has custom bonnet stripes, 13" revolution alloys, stage one kit with pipercross filter and RC40 exhaust

She was a bit of a mess in this photo - But i rebuilt her and had her sprayed orange and then put black tiger stripes all over her. She looked like TIGGER!! Unfortunately, I had to sell her about a year ago. I still miss her terribly though.

I have also owned a mini 30 and a mini 850.
