Should have put a couple of pics of the engines on it mate ......... I wont make any OHHH MY GOD comments about the price .... im sure there will be enough people along soon enough to do that . Good luck with your sale, I hope you get what you want for it

Patt@firstime

Thanks mate, I don't have any others at the mo but am going to take some more in case people email me.

OMG - look at the price

What a labour of love, how could you do it or spend that much in the first place. Did you have a budget in mind when you first thought of the idea?

Patt@firstime

Floyd - budget when I started was £15k!!!

Pat,,

There is already a honda engined ring mini over there which murders most things. Why are you selling after only £500 miles? I think i would wanna get some fun out of it first after loosing so much wonga

Patt@firstime

Gary - I need to sell as I want to buy a house with my g/f (boring I know but the truth) plus I don't get the time to use it as much as it deserves. Ive done loads of shows with it but unfortuately most of those it went on a trailer to keep miles down and car 'mint'.

I'd love to keep it but just don't have enough 'wonga' to keep it and buy a house

Good luck with the sale mate , just make sure you dont take a silly offer on it unless your desperate and its my offer ........

see ya

Gary

Patt@firstime

Matt,

Such a shame you are having to sell it I am gutted my brothers have driven and I haven't yet!

It's a bit (well a fair bit to be honest! ) out of my budget as I'm on the look out for a new motor, but hey, hope somebody buys it.

Quick question, did the suspension get setup properly in the end? Matey boy from Pulling Power mentioned that it wasn't setup quite right and I cannot remember if that was filmed before or after Castle Coombe?

Patt@firstime

Scott - hi mate, yeah suspension has been done and is now a different car to drive was done after CC. Paul has drove it but Rich hasn't (he didn't want to ).

What you looking for? Replacement for scoob or is Karen having it?

Matt

Scott W

Karen is having the Scooby, me a boring Mondeo or similar...... I do have aspirations for a track day car though, but 25k is a bit OTT for me!

Didn't Rich drive it a CC? My mistake if he didn't....

LG John

Surely it won't make that price mate (sorry to be brutal!). Yes you've spent way more but anyone buying it could have a hell of a lot of car for that money that isn't a twin engined go-cart and if they did want such a car surely they'd want the fun of developing it themselves. Sadly most people that chuck such massive amounts of money at a car have to accept that they don't get much in the way of return.

Good luck though

TopBanana

Surprised it's for sale under that ebay userid. Hardly an unblemished record

wide

Wow fab car bet its good fun too much for some I think though good luck with the sale

Ghostdog

Heh I am with you on this, I can't see it making that either, 25k can get you exiges.

Good luck anyway!

The user Id on ebay is not 100% because someone has registered negative feedback but I have never bought or sold anything to this particular person, they have confirmed this and ebay are sorting.

As for all the normal negative SN bull$hit I have 1 very serious person interested and another possible, Ive only put it on ebay in case they fall through.

How can you compare this to an exige , an exige is a quick standard car, my mini is a no compramise built for speed (my mini is 1.7 seconds faster to 60 than an exige!) custom car.

Someone get an exige and I'll drive into a car show at the same time and we'll see the number of people who swamp the mini compared to the standard lotus. My point is they are completely different cars.

My mini is a 'one off', please feel free to google it all you want, there is no other! I'm sure I've seen more than 1 exige

Brendan Hughes

Definitely. Or at least links (can you put links on ebay?) to any features or articles about it that might be on the web.

Good luck.

Patt@firstime

Scott - CC is when I said Paul and Rich could drive it but only Paulo drove it.

Matt

What a shame! Good luck, hope someone nice buys it.

Patt@firstime

Thanks Clare, yeah me to
