my mini cooper 1.3i

[hamster111]

it was the altinator and yeh the car had some issues with the paint some mix between the old brittish racing green and the new one or something like that

[SandyRitchie]

Rattle is either tappets needing an adjust or maybe the alternator... Pretty normal for a mini.

I notice the boot lid colour isn't an exact match for rear of car?

[hamster111]

what rattle the one coming fromt he engine?

[hamster111]

@hamster111 hat rattle the one coming from the engine?

[Mpayne]

Does that rattle go away after it's wamed up?

[rafbassplayer]

[Heatseeker872591]

i just paid 7 grand for mine, a year 2000 38 thousand on the clock. its the best car i have ever had. however the oil temperature gauge isnt working and the fuel gauge isnt working right will get it sorted tho/ i seen some of these beauties for sale at 16 grand just because they got a few hundred miles on the clock and hardly done any mileage

[RosesForTheDead7]

The red L is for people learning to drive, The green P are for people who have just passed their driving test..

[hamster111]

well it depends what you do to them mine is just a standard 1275 cc so it aint exactly fkn speedy but there very nippy which makes it feel like ur going faster than you are however if you make some mods to the engine this car could rip anything
