  1. They certainly are not cheap to insure - 998cc Cost me £300 more to insure than 1.3 GT Coupe Polo

    Mini isn't the ideal first car, restoring them costs a bit, finding a clean one is rare - personally i'd go for something shite as a first car - fiesta or something.

    ive tried puttin in a few different cars in the insurance form thing and the mini came up as being £600 to insure with my dad and was cheaper than a friends saxo and was close to the micra (old 1)

    im wanting to buy the car early so i can get everything sorted seen as though its an old car it will proberblys need stuff doing to it

    thanks for all help guys

  2. hey,

    pretty soon i will be looking to buy a car so its ready to start driving when im 17

    ive been looking at the minis people tell me that they are amazingly fun cars and cheap with insurance? but over people are sayin that they will fall apart with them being an old car? so if im spending money on the car i dont want to be having to pay for it to get fixed every month!

    could some one tell me what to look for and how much i should have to spend if i want a decent car thats going to last a while?

    also could you tell me the pros and cons of a mini, and wether i should try and get one, OR if i should think about gettin a different style car? if so what do you advise?

    thank you

    edit: its the old style mini (austin)

  3. im not having ago here it was just something i thought that'd make sense like he could just change the "recieve pads in 2-3 working days" to something like a week then people arnt expecting them for a bit longer then it saves him time so he dosnt have to reply to everyones emails (Y)

    edit: and he dosnt have to write little notes and waste his profit on giving free pads away

  4. if your front brake isnt holding then itl be your front brake but if it is just try and leen foward more

    edit: i must of read it wrong i also dont know what you mean but if your on your back wheel its got nothing to do with your front brake

  5. got my pads today just set them up as good as i could and had a little ride about on the curb they seem to be gettin better to when i first started but cant do much more ridin just had the bleep test this mornin :(

  6. i had coust pads in plastic backings and they arnt very good they seem to just glide over my rim and have no lock at all so i tried them on my mates bike and it was the same i was dissapionted as i fort they were the dogs :(

  7. a friend wants to upgrade to a zoo python but im pretty sure that they only come in one length now but with the older style ones like 04 05 they came in 2 different lengths is there anywere you can still purchase these from
