Irish Mini Owners Club

Spotted this little dixie on the way to work just off mercer street in dublin.
Anyone on here own this one.

It would be cool but i have to agree with Stan. My little boy is still too young to learn how to slash tyres and break mirrors. Thanks for the offer all the same. I'll be painting it as close as i can to tahiti blue like my last cooper.

whoops should work now.

Hi to all. I have been decorating my son's bedroom and really liked the idea of a mini themed room. I decided to browse the web for mini themed beds and was surprised at the lack of them. So set about making my own. Here are a few pics of my progress so far. http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q235/d...

Yes it is the one from argos and i have to say it's better than i thought it would be.
I'm 6ft and can stroll up and down without stooping. And as for width if you look at
the pic the gtm is wider than my mini and there is still plenty of room at the sides.

Heres a better look at the pedals.

The 1980 austin 998 will take up to much time so this one is being stripped for auto jumble soon.

I am makin slow progress of late due to me getting married abroad recently. But i'm getting back in the swing of things. Have put up a new workshop that might help things along. http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q235/dermow/Image021.jpg I am in the process of ordering a Pro Motive kit for the hillc...

I living in Portlaoise so not a million miles away from you.

Hi there Good to see another GTM project in action. You seem to be on top of things at the moment, more than i can say for mine. I'm trying to put a Yamaha R1 engine into mine and as you know there is very little room in the engine bay. If you want to cast your eye over it go to the General section ...

They will do fine for now. Any pics you have you can email me, my email can be found in my profile. How much you want for them?

My two front tyres on my cooper are bald as an egg due wheel alignment. One has a slow puncture. Have tried a couple of places in portlaoise but they don't do them. Found one place that can get them but he charges E90 each and he can't get them in untill the new year. Does anybody know of a shop/tyr...

When driving my 1999 cooper there is loud clunk , thump from the engine bay. Every time i put my foot down on the pedal (thump) and i get the impression the engine is jumping back and when i let off again (thump) and the engine sits back. Thinking engine mount but don't know which one. Engine steady...
