Irish Mini Owners Club

Who says Laservison doesn't work. Spotted you at the back of their building when getting my eyes checked. Further down the road opposite the laneway was a Green -TS- mini.

anything like this on a mini before

Yeah I lived in Oz for a while and a lot of older cars have them......They just reduce the amount of direct light coming through the glass and melting any plastic inside. I had to replace the dash on my Holden Commodore ( Big Opel ) because I forgot to put up the reflective visor on my windscreen. Melted all the top of my dash and even the steering wheel. 48-52degrees celsius focused through glass is not fun.

[quote="THOMAS"]Saw mini in limerick yesterday, white with pictures advertising costume shop in shannon.[/quote]


thats for sale on donedeal
cheap

Here is one,I have tried to buy it but no joy althought a friend of mine who is joining the club has a friend and he thinks that he might be able to reach the owner but I would not hold much hope for him.I know of a good few people who have tried to buy it.It looks alot worse than it is.Inner and outer sills and a rear valance would see much of the thin worm gone.And I would think the 61k on the clock is original too.

Aidan, thats nearly identical to a van that Aaron from Miniresouce bought a few years back (the lad with the General Lee Orange Clubby) its obviously not the same van, but its identical in colour with the stripes and everything. Was an auto too. Come to think of it, theres absolutely no point to this reply, at all.

em, carry on...

Johnny Murphy and I were heading up to Dublin yesterday for a committee meeting and we passed a grey metallic Mini on the back of a trailer being pulled by a people carrier. The Mini had no sills and looked fairly rough.
