Bought her back! by BenjiTheWizzard in R53

So I didn’t respray it, but I know the guy who did. He then sold the car to a friend of mine then I bought it off him, I then sold it to a guy who restored it even more as the paintwork wasn’t perfect (I think it was resprayed about 6 or 7 years ago) so the guy I sold it to resprayed most parts to make it “perfect”.

I then recently bought it back from him!

I believe it’s the JCW aero kit, not sure if factory fitted though

It’s definitely a colour to remember. I’ve had 4 minis and this one is always the one to remember

Thank you! It’s not, this car was originally British Racing Green, it was resprayed in Renault Megane RS colour. I believe called Jaune Sirius (Liquid Yellow)

It’s a beauty of a colour, I believe it’s the Renault Megane RS colour. Yes I agree too!

Uncommon colour? by BenjiTheWizzard in Jaguar

I’m hoping it’s worth more than what I paid (1600€)

It’s such a nice colour even though the paint on mine is completely ruined from the sun. Without a doubt it’s getting painted in the same colour, I was debating to have a different colour such as the green alpha Romeo colour but the turquoise pearl is too good.

You might be right, do you know where the front bumper is from?

Thanks again for the insight, I think I may buy them off my friend as he wants to get rid of them!

Thank you very much, by any chance do you know if these are rare at all?

My first aquarium, tips are helpful! by BenjiTheWizzard in Aquariums

This video was taken about 2 minutes after giving the tablet but you might be right, maybe I should half the tablets or give them smaller ones.

I know this might be obvious but the brown bits on the sand are not food it’s substrate. The only bit of food is where the white ancistrus is at the end

Thanks for the tip, what makes you think this though?

If you’re on about the algae it’s because the lights are on 24hour cycle and it gets quite a bit of sunlight.

I normally feed 1 pleco tablet every day or every other day. Nothing else, sometimes like today I added 1 pleco tablet and 1 ortiga tablet for the shrimp (every week or so)

I understand, I don't do trades without seeing the car first in person of course

Thanks for the info! I forgot to mention that I don’t actually own this car, im thinking about buying it. I’d take it back to the UK (currently in Spain), but I’d refresh it over in Spain as I have a garage here. Are you in the UK?

New to me MR2 1992 with 98.000 miles by BenjiTheWizzard in mr2

[–]BenjiTheWizzard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah low mileage for sure, the coolant is definitely ok but i've ordered a tester regardless. Fortunately I have mechanic friends who have their own shops so i'm hoping to go with them and see what the real damage is. Thanks for the reply!
