My Mini Project - A web site for the Mini enthusiast from the point of view of a Mini enthusiast. No tech-speak or Haynes-manual-style instructions. Just plain and simple this-is-how-I-did-it details with photos.

My Mini Project details the restoration of a 1990 Mini City E 998cc A-series Classic Rover Mini, followed by modifications and lots and lots of maintenance.

Jobs carried out so far range from subframe replacement, braking system overhaul, fitting an adjustable suspension, fitting wider alloy wheels and tyres, fitting wider wheel arches, fitting an internal bonnet release, fitting a stage one kit, to lots of maintenance, welding, bodywork repairs and regular oil changes.
