DaveC's 1275 GT
I was doing a bit of work on the GT today. I took out the drivers seat
and stuck in one I bought elsewhere
The passenger seat will be next!

Re: DaveC's 1275 GT
Dave,
I never thought the headrests could be extended that high.
Are there plans to do the GT's bodywork or has that been done?

No prizes to guessing what you'll be at this winter
If it isn’t broke then it’s not a Mini

Re: DaveC's 1275 GT
Had the GT out of the garage yesterday for the first time this year. I gave it a wash to take away the dust. Looks OK from a distance

Re: DaveC's 1275 GT
Looks savage Dave, theres just something about Minis that are really original and need just that little bit of tlc.
Getting old is a must but growing up is optional!

I was chatting to Beadles about the GT earlier.

Is it a coincidence that mini and money start with the same letter? 'cause if you have the first you sure better have lots of the other
