I like your title PeterK smile I have a photo on my website from an old advert and it says "When everything else goes wrong....your mini will still love you" And I just felt like giving my mini a hug and remembered that picture.

The wheels are new to me...but not new, however they are genuine Rover alloys and I found in my own town the very helpful and friendly exporter for the factory that made the original wheel nuts (who are also in my town) and they sold me a complete new set for £10. They normally sell 20,000 at a time but wanted to help me out and 16 seemed like a small ammount for them smile

Uncanny resemblance to the advert on your site. You're a born model. I guess the car is too.
