true,and it was also de-seamed......but then that's a mod that a lot of owners go for anyway.
IMHO you either go 100% authentic,or you mod as you like.

Id be a more of a mod as you like kidna guy.
The fiberglassed mini pickup, while nice just doesnt sit right. Just a little too long for me really. Saying that though, id be happy with either of them.

Update on the Pop, noy sure if Ill be getting my dads one, so ill be looking to get my own. I was told id be looking at 500+ sterling which aint too bad at all really for what I need.

I died a little inside after seeing that

Id probably go for clubman styling, wide arches and that. But mostly standard, either black with a red bed cover, or red with a black bed cover.
Id stick a cage in it too though lol

I think the Mini looks best with seams.

actually after digging up that old pic of my car (the red one not the pick up lol), I now realise that it needs some love - hasnt been polished in a while!

Mic - You'd put a clubby front on it, would you? That's what the guy with the green pickup I'm talking about has done and it looks really cool.

Ah you own a mini now? Cool, pics!!!

Id defintly try the club front end, would look very sweet. Dont happen to have a pic of the green one?

I could seriously see me driving a a mini pick up as a daily driver, or even the Pop. Its only a 20 minute drive to work!

Vroom. Very nice indeed.

Dont give me any more ideas

Im thinking of changing my 5 cars to mini pick up, rodded Popular, datsun 240/260z and a triumph gt6 honda Crx (shoebox)

easy mate,you sound like you think you'd be suffering for your art.

Thats true I guess. Iv seen a couple people that seem to use them as daily drivers. Might make it a reality for myself.

Looks sweet with the black rims!
Very nice indeed, interior looks suprisingly comfy. Who owns the yellow plate nehind it?

Jaysus, some serious work going into it!
Should be a real headturner when done!

Im not sure where I seen it, must have been on here unless your on any of the 'cruise' sites in Ireland?

Anyone have the video of the vtec mini?

I'm not on any cruise sites - not my scene at all - that's about as pimped as I get lol.
Must have been on here so!

I have the ringmini videos - There are some other good videos out there such as a KAD powered Mini with 160bhp - that's a beast

Not really my 'scene' either, but i do like my hondas lol.

Got any links to those vids?

The type r is absolutely savage. Id kill to get my hands on one of them.

Mic · 26 Feb 2006 at 22:22

Looking at the sites, there very rare lol. And you werent joking when u said they where pricey :eek:

Mic · 26 Feb 2006 at 23:52

I'll put that idea on the back burner for a while. Get my pop project up and going first!
