Hmm no worries Paul probably a good thing you don't stress the engine anymore than it needs to be, sad that your not going it'll be a great due!!!

Hi Rams, any run notes yet mate ??

Also what's happening about Sat / Sun lunch, sandwiches, shops, supermarket, pub ???

Understand Saturday night is BBQ, so just trying to arrange space in car, rather bring booze than food

I've prob missed this and in thread somewhere, but done a man look so far.

Rams, my car is currently at the dealers for a new clutch - so its not looking likely for me either.

It's only just had a new steering column too - so much for MINI reliability.

Well, the car is back from the dealer complete with new clutch, but is now sat on the drive with multiple dash warning lights showing. I am awaiting on MINI emergency service.

To say I am ****ed off would be an understatement.

Have fun guys.

Had a brilliant time on the Heartbeat, some amazing roads and some erm rather ‘spirited’ driving to say the least. Its not often the Mini gets a work out like that!!

Trying something new with the pics as I’m too lazy to upload them here and Northern Mini so you can find them here….
