Back in love

Hi everybody
Well Im back in love with the Mini family, they sure change from the 70, were
far from the 998, (was owner of two of them). You will notice that Im french from Quebec, Gatineau actually. Just bought a mcs 2002 dark silver with a busted engine ,got a used one to switch but will do a few thing since its apart.
By the way wich you a happy and a healthy new year.

Once you get your project rolling you'll find BIG difference from the old style ones.

What's wrong with engine?

Hi Vollgas
Someone started a job but quit, the head was remove and taken apart it look like a head gasket since the oil was mixed with the antifreeze, the result was pretty ugly even the supercharge was damage ,found a engine but still checking
for supercharge parts (the 2 gear on the rear end)
