"Rare super mini"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Second clutch went at 130,000.

Original throttle switch went at 100,000.

Original alternator went at 134,000.

Original front wheel bearings starting to get noisy.

Interior trim all over car starting to rattle.

General comments?

Very fun to drive, but can catch you out when you're not paying attention.

Factory brakes absolutely crap, due to master cylinder too small and front brake pipes expanding giving spongy feel. fitted a passat master cylinder and braided pipes to overcome this.

Cat knocked out being a 91 model, don't need it and can feel the difference in power.

Induction kit fitted and then removed due to fuel freezing!!!.Air box drilled and new panel filter fitted.
