Av Got My MINI back at last.

I have my mini back after 2 weeks of waiting.

For those who have not heard from me b4, i bought a mini cooper and had only for 36 hrs b4 giving it back bcoz a noise from the front of the car inbetween gears. the diagnosis was a replacement gearbox. OH DEAR!!!!!!

And so, 2wks and a new gearbox and clutch later i have my mini back in my hands.the car feels totally different- alot more smoother and a more precise gear change.

i have managed to get an exteneded warranty as well them paying for a major service which the car is now due that they forgot to tell me about.

I feel alot happier now that i have it back and am now looking for to spending lots of tlc on it.

hopefully will spending alot more time on mini2 from now on and gettin to know places to meet in the north-west get-togethers!!!

cheers

gaz

Congratulations, they are such fun when they work properly!
Where in North West? If Lancashire, look up LMR in search, you'll be pleasantly surprised.
