After years of reading about other people’s cars, I thought I would start my own thread. I run a variety of older cars including a Mini R50, a VX220 and a Cayman 987 so there’s usually something needing attention.I bought the Cayman in March. It’s a 2007 model with the base 2.7 engine. This means it has the stronger IMS bearing and little concern about bore-score (unlike the 3.4S which I specifically avoided). It’s a manual and scrapes into the lower road tax bracket. I spent 6 months watching for this exact specification and then it popped up for sale on Gumtree just a few miles from me. The
Time for an update.I used the Cayman through the summer as my daily (well, hybrid working) driver. I was also lucky enough to pick up genuine Porsche roof bars so I can carry my bike too – brilliant, I can enjoy the drive and the cycle.Meantime, I sorted out my Mini. It’s a 2002 R50 with 155K miles on the clock so this probably wasn’t worth the effort. I like the car though.I replaced the rear brake discs and pads and a rear hub and then moved onto the rust. First off, the nasty looking rear subframe. Then I cut some rust away and needle-gunned the entire rear section which revealed a few more holes. I then welded, painted on 2 pack epoxy (an old tin so was a bit lumpy) and then used a compressor to spray Dinitrol onto everything and into all cavities. A replacement rear subframe, new brake hoses all round and new front callipers finished it off. It passed the MOT with a much-reduced list of advisories and then shortly after the alternator failed so I replaced that, with a new belt too. It’s running great now and I used it all winter while the Porsche hibernated.

Romeford said: Thank you. Mrs Romeford has accepted that she now has to share me! I think she could easily be a rust bucket or a pristine example. It's down to me where she ends up and I get to learn spanners! I do wonder what she will be like when all the jobs are done! Is this Mrs Romeford or Francesca you’re now referring to? …….

Glad you're ok, and a warm welcome to the 'Small car vs Mercedes 4x4' club. Membership is now 2 of us . I was in my Smart Fortwo and got rear ended by a Mercedes ML. Hopefully the Twizy is fixable.
