Hi, sorry, haven't a car to sell you, though you will almost certainly find one in the back of your local paper that suits you - especially if you're willing to do the work yourself...

The only niggles I live with on my mini are crap wipers - they lift off the screen above 80 so not much fun also I suppose 3rd & 4th are badly spaced...nothing else really, but then I have spent a huge amount getting it like that (£4,200 )

Just post up any questions you have

Not a niggle but something you will have to get used to if you are used to normal cars. The mini rattles, I don't know why but every mini I've been in has rattles which you can hear but nothing is wrong. I'm actually conviced that when they build them there is actually a "rattle thingy" or the mechanics throw half a dozen nuts and bolts into the chassis.

Still worth it for grin factor

The good news is the mini rattles have been fitted in to the new MINI.
dash board,seats,doors,windows,tail gate etc.
cool.

Squeaks and rattles - such a pain in the arse and oil leaking from where the linkage enters the gearbox, its bloody perpetual.
