Hey recently joined the club as I've bought a lovely 214i Sprint. My current plans for it are to service it, have some welding done on it and make it look a bit better. Lovely drive though, very smooth but theres a vacuum leak somewhere which is making it a bit rough but nothing major. Thank you :)

The wheels have been changed back to the originals, the Mini alloys were too big.

Nice colour 👌

I notice yours has the gti underbumper extensions on the front, i have those on mine too....adds a little more sportiness.

Never seen one on those alloys before, now you mention modern mini i see where they came from. Did they rub on full lock?

I also have a 214 Sprint but mine was being built as a race car tho so the only surviving original parts are the shell, dash, paint and rear wiring loom :laughing2
