Hi all,

Just thought I would introduce myself. Life long mini fan. Owned a number of minis as a teenager and twenty something year old including a '77 850 and an '86 Chelsea. I also owned a MG Metro many moons ago too and did a number of modifications to the engine.

Recently bought an '81 Dublin registered Mini City in pretty decent condition and have started the strip down as I want to do a complete body restoration of it.

I live in Laois and I am going to head over to the Classic Car Show on Sunday to see some of your cars.

What I am really looking forward to is that my children will now get a chance to experience driving a Mini now that we have one in the household.

Looking forward to contributing to the board.

Regards,
Conor

Welcome to the forum conor, hopefully all you need is here, if not, ask anyone any kind of question and you will get an answer ;)
If it's bigger than a mini it's not a mini
