As many of you guys will know my mini blew up about a month ago and it has finally been fixed back to 100%. But of course i am now £1850 lighter and scotthall are laughing. It turns out that the engine backfired through the intake manifold instead of out of the exhaust (how ever that happens), but the engine was unharmed it was all the plastic weak bits that broke. But as i said all fixed now so life carries on.
