Irish Mini Owners Club

is the steering wheel on a mini adjustable r wen u put bucket seats in du u hav 2 stretch ur arms out like ur drivin a lorry lol

sounds like you need a steering drop bracket

at the moment i dnt hav a mini, but id luv a an anthricite mini cooper wit black cobra interior but the steering wheel is up very high. if i did buy a mini wer cud i get a steering drop bracket nd how much wud it cost?

most mini suppliers sell the for arround 5 sterling

aw ok that handy enuf, wud it work with power steering? wud puttin bucket seats in a mini make it handier 2 drive if sum1 was on the tall side?

im 6'5'' and i feel comfortable in a standard seat just have the lack of head room. but i recently put buckets into mine and the differene... i have much more leg room as the seat travels further back, plus the seat is lower therefore more head room! woop!!!

I'm 6'2 and I just have extender brakets on my standerd seats and no drop bar on my steering wheel and I'm preety comfy!

CORRECTION = Listen Buddy, I Paul_K_94 am not on this site for a row and i am not a mini expert either it is just i seen a few mini's in magazines and on the internet with power assisted steering so i figured all mini's have power steering. Honestly, I do not have a mini and i know frog all about them so I am on here to find out about them before I buy one!!!!

AND AS I SAID I AM NOT ON HERE FOR A ROW BUT I THINK YOU ARE SAD FOR PICKING ON A 15 YEAR OLD "buddy"

now can you all help me?

Just to wrap things up here, Not all Minis have power steering and very little do. It is posible to put power steering in yourself but if power steering is standerd in a Mini it would only be on the later models. As for the drop brackets you can buy them for little or nothing and they just lower your steering wheel so your not streching like a mother f**ker!

Any more questions?


StanO'Toole

no thats fine, i only had one question and everyone was making a big deal of me thinking there were power steerings in a mini and blowing things way out of porportion. thanks anyway.

Questions are there to be answers dude, all you have to do is ask!

StanO'Toole

And it was so much nicer to let your personality shine through on your posts even if it was a little angry but hey your 15 it's cool.
Welcome.

paul no worries, i was just trying to let you know they dont come as standard with power assisted steering

sorry if you thought i was having a go, i truly wasnt!

hope you find yourself a nice car!
