Irish Mini Owners Club

Hi Guys long time no see. Recently my mini has become my daily driver (Astra kicked the bucket). Everything has been grand for the last month but Friday morning it refused to start. On Thursday morning I started it and I wouldn't call it a great start turned one or two times more than normal and the...

Very sad news. Mike was a true gentleman and a great driver, my best memory of him is me trying to keep with him and his Cooper S around the bends at Watergrasshill.

Stupid question but has the new Non-Use of Motor Vehicles Bill 2013 come into action yet?

I used axle stands as I never trust the jack and just as well too when I was finished and was letting down the jack, the jack collapsed. To think that is where my head...

I was going to say its a nice winter project but knowing you, you'll have on the road in no time and your dead right only way to learn how a mini works is to get stuck in.

Great run and great turn out. Fair play to Joe some great shots there. He was like crouching tiger hidden camera man, you would come round a bend and Joe's head would pop up out of a ditch with a camera
