    I attribute the roof rust on my own Mini to long term storage under a stormfoce cover - In my ignorance I hadn't considered the effect it might have. Although much more expensive I bought a Carcoon to store my Lotus in over winter and free up space in the garage - worth checking out for your minis.

    I like Sprout and P111OOW as they are more luxurious and have the 5 speed gearbox which it was crying out for years.

    The right decision. Would love to see a classic mini kit like a Marcos, Midas or GTM rebuilt. Fancy it? Cheers mate. 👍👍

    I'm lucky I don't need three vehicles only one. Don't you just hate hoards? They full up every space and you can't walk in it. I never intend to have a second vehicle in the boat shed in Wedge Avenue because of a door that's difficult to close till it's shut firm, plus a bolt on a slide lock can mark a gravel drive.

    Totally understand your point with low milage cars. Great if you have space to shove it but if you want cars to use they are a pain with taking up space!

    Having seen Tardis 'in the metal' I can confirm what an utterly superb Mini it is (sorry about the handprint) and what a small world that it was sold in Surbiton when I lived there.
    What a hard choice between Sprout and Tardis though. Me? I would have moved Sprout on simply because Tardis is an utterly unique car like the John Cooper S is in its own way.
    Basically its all about gut feeling and what makes sense to you. Hope it makes the money it deserves. ie A LOT!

    My volvo spent a lot of time under a cover last year. It got pretty damp and grotty inside. They need to either be stashed inside or used dont they. Looking forward to whats coming keith. 996 911 would be my next goal 😁

    hey Keith, I know you know P111OWW used to be red, as one of your first videos has a poster of it on the floor in the background (you talk of triggers broom in the video) but,.did you realise it's a car that Clarkson drove himself back when it was new?
    P111OWW and P111EWW were featured in an episode of top gear...
    I'm sure you already knew, but if you didn't, I hope it's of interest.

    • @classicminiworkshop
      @classicminiworkshop  2 года назад

      Hi, thanks. P111OWW is the press car that was driven by Jeremy Clarkson etc. It's still Red and privately owned. My car is P111OOW. Very similar registration numbers but not the same car.

    • @classicminiworkshop
      @classicminiworkshop  2 года назад

      So the last Mini I done, project "Bruce" which I put 200+ hrs into for free for a subscriber? Stop being a troll or I will just block all of your comments from the channel. And if you think any of the Minis sell for a profit, it really shows how little you know about the hard work that goes into them!

    • @classicminiworkshop
      @classicminiworkshop  2 года назад

      I don't quite understand why you feel the need to question if I'm an enthusiast. The definition of an enthusiast is "a person who is very interested in a particular activity or subject". I find your comments quite offensive so please, if you've got nothing nice or constructive to say, keep it to yourself
