[bigtallcarl]

thats a nice mini

[MrCodyLuv]

how do you get the wheels out that far? im looking to get a mini and having the wide arches on it with possibly bright white superlight wheels but i dont know how to get the wheels out as far as the edge of the arches.

[MyGigger]

@MrCodyLuv the wheels on this car are 7x13's this means that they are 7 inches wide thats why they sit so far out.

[kizza12344321]

@MyGigger no called wheel spacers mate

[britishminifan2991]

[weelr3]

I miss that sound from when I was a lad!

[dan19evans]

i love that whine from the straight cut box =P

[Siywestbrook]

hum stupid over taking nice car tho but wont be for long driving like that :(

[AttackRyno]

he said fourteen eighty cc...

does anyone know if that exhaust is a playmini or fletcher system?

[georgearchard]

i don't know but both systems are very similar, looks like a stainless 3" side exit.

[siralex123456]

nice car shame it's a trailer princess thow

[veyronman]

what makes you say that? are you referring to them jacking it up and wheeling it around for the studio shots?

think about it... if you're in a confined space like that, you're not going to want to have a car running whilst you get it into position. They were just saving their health!

[MiniWorldmagazine]

It's far from a trailer queen!

[siralex123456]

thats gd 2 hear

[afatchild]

i've got those wheels in 13x7 with yoko tyres on my mini : )

[astericx]

[Raw122]

[extremematios]

[hamster111]

[jewses]

1480 sounds good to me.!!!! thats HUUUUGE for an a+ series motor

[Greenwood4365]

its a 1460, listen to the man say it. Iv got the mag with it on the cover aswell, its a 1460, dunno why theyv put it as a 1480 on here

[jewses]

oh fair call. 1460 is bloody impressive none the less...didnt know u could bore them out that far.

[MiniWorldmagazine]

When I originally spoke to Pat he said it was a 1480cc, but we later worked out that it was a 1459cc.

Stephen

[jewses]

impressed either way =] good to see so much effort put into a mini =] and fuckn glad to see it gets used! haha that whine from the g-box is unmistakeable. got one myself

[Tefflar]

Lovely sound from both the engine and gear box!

[MiniWorldmagazine]

It's the same 73.5mm bore as a 1380 but with a stroked billet crank- just waiting to confirm figures with the owner as my calculations actually make it 1459cc - still quite a large capacity though! Stephen

[marleyman101]

bored to 1480 cant be good :P hehe
