All MINI/Minis are welcome here! Check out the Classic area here on NAM, a great place for advice and input from other classic Mini owners. I hope to join your ranks one day. Looking forward to meeting you and your Mini at the Dragon.

I seriously would consider having one over my 05 MCSa if I could put a sweet Navi in it.

That is beautiful. Did you buy it like it is or fix it up your self. Hate to be nosey but what did it cost you and where did you get it I always thought a classic MINI with a vtec would be great to own.

ok well since its working now ... i always wanted to say i didn't build the car i happened on it by chance .. bought it from a guy in SC .. it was built by MiniTec... i plan on putting a b16 head on it ... possibly ported/polished, and ITR cams ... in the future i would love to do a full NA build or boost it = )

That is a nice looking Mini. Is it my imagination, or does the bonnet look slightly stretched? Could be to fit the VTEC in.
Love the wheels on it too.

Your ride looks strangely familiar.
