Hi do you recon get rid of my scooby or mini

[moddinmad]

scooby..

mini rules

[Deano]

Mini`s are worth more every year;)

[nige]

I'm using £50 a week in petrol from holywell to deeside so the scooby has to go, on the other hand i have changed the engine 3 times in my mini and only covered around 100 miles in the past 5 years think the wife will understand NO

[TONYELF]

It's downhill from Holywell to Deeside, try free wheeling there. Just use engine to get back LOL

[charlie_mini]

scooby! how have you gone thru 3 engines?? mines done nearly 100k and still fine so far (touch wood!)

[nige]

I could freewheel there and call the AA relay to get home sorted

[nige]

I have gone through 3 engines because the first one was a 998 then i got a modified 1275 with race cam etc so i was told, then i fitted a 1275 from a mg metro that was re-board after the car was flood damaged i might get a decent engine one day

[TONYELF]

Now why didn't I think of that? :D

I once broke down on holiday whilst towing the caravan. Recovery couldn't find out what was wrong,decided to tow me home, next day, I thought I would check it out myself. I know I think I'll put battery on charge,might be a bit flat after all the attempts to start it. And guess what...... one connection was loose!!!! So I got home free of charge, chauffeur driven and my tank was still full! So Nige you could do that, I think AA will soon cotton on though!

[nige]

I was surprised to find out even though you are a member if you call them out more than three times in one year they charge you

[TONYELF]

I think thats a fair number of call outs. Part of the deal is that you keep the vehicle in a good cond, regularly serviced in hope it won't breakdown but things happen don't they?(at the most inconvenint times and places I might add)

Like when you're on a mini run! :D
