very nice car but if i ahd 17k id buy RBWPN.. not takeing anything away from the car just youd need to spend alot more ot make it up to lets say RBWPN's level. id rather buy something with the full package .
tru its alot of money, but i wanted a vlt dis color and its a org bt1 with papers so im happy, full tune shuld give me 250-270 kw on 18psi, which is unuf for the street, im not gona b dragin dis, maybe just run it once see wat it does n den just get it all show condition.
ye fair enuf mate, from pics it looks immac and im sure itd look better in person too...and your dead right 270rwkw is MORE then enough on the street as you said mate run the numbers you want and finish it off as you want.
What color interior are you thinking??
change of plan. bought dark cream vinyl for my boot, so i guess ill b doin it all the same color, im lookin to get vt and onwards. so ill c how it all goes

well yeh thats it. could have payed 10g for one n probly have problems with it. at least when i bought this 1 the motor was out and getting a full rebuild. still got few more things to be done interior wise. but outside is preety much done apart from dropping the rear bit more
yeh totally. as an example, a good mate of mine has always loved minis (not my choice either but each to their own). Anyway hes not mechanic orientated at all, but just loves the cars. he saved his money and payed 12g's for a completely restored one (repsray/new trim/rebuilt motor) an he absolutely loves it. an we still often have to work on it cause its an old car. but thing is if he bought one for 5-6 grand it would of been a crapheap with lots of rust an shot suspension an stuff. You ONLY get what you pay for. as people above have said, yeh you might be able to get a 10-12 second car for under 17, but its guna be all on the engine, an none spent on the rest of the car. like u, id rather get a better quality car that is worth keeping.
