The Mini 1.4 Td is used as a working van by a busy Telecommunications business telephone systems and data installations installer. But it also gets out at night for a very busy social scene.
John has always been involved in some type of motor sport and most of his past vehicles have been customised. He is a fan of the second generation Mini and he likes well modified vehicles. John always wanted a Rolls Royce with a roof rack for his ladders but it proved out of reach for his pocket so went for the Mini (one extreme to the other so to speak).
The Diesel Mini was chosen for the economy, not the most practical of work vehicles but one that loaned it’s self to modification and had a large following. John proves that the treatment and customised approach usually given to the Mini Cooper S works just as well on a Diesel.
John will keep this Mini 1.4 Td for the next 250000 miles, then convert it to a track car keeping the diesel theme.
This Mini is set to change before the 250000 miles is reached and this web site will track those mods.
So re visit this mini sites gallery for updates.
