The modern era is dictated to by a few things- safety standards, and cost sharing.

[@G.Bfit.93]

For real. Newer cars are super heavy, big, low rev, turboed unreliable garbage. It's not hard to make a good car like this.

I bought one as my first car, it is still now the most fun car I've ever driven, it's like a go kart. But get ready to spend 3 times the money you think you will need to spend, it's a money pit. Still the best car I've ever owned

Glad you enjoyed it mate. The reason I do KZbin 👍

[@dominicflanagan6416]

Absolutely epic. Had an 850 mini 40 years ago souped with twin carbs and 215 tyres. Want want one again. Only thing is the wide tyres for a light car didn't have good grip on the wet, l spun off a few times, went back to 165 tyres for better grip. Look at Monte Carlo rally minis, all had narrow tyres for grip. Aside, congratulations on building this fantastic mini.

[@daniellynn3240]

The most beautiful machine I have ever seen. I would love to own that

[@rubencaixeiro9762]

I love classic minis since I was a child and my father had one... Just the looks, even without the silly engine. Love it.

[@masonstorm1834]

Thanks love the Mini and performance and feedback must be amazing, also love the paint choice looks really cool with the arches and wide tyres

[@SennaF1]

Absolutely brilliant!!! The fun you could have with that mini at traffic lights!! Can’t wait to see the Fiat 500, outrageously brilliant!!!

[@PetrolPed]

I can’t wait either 😬😂

[@Billydevito]

Mad on a track, crazy on the road ! Absolutely insane in the wet !! The mini handles like a go-kart but is tricky at the limit. With the engine in the rear, I’m guessing it’ll be like a classic 911. Understeer, then massive oversteer. It’ll hang on until it doesn’t, then, because of the short wheelbase, come around very suddenly and quickly. Thrilling to be sure, but not for the average driver. Reminds me of the Giocattolo in the 80s. A mid-mounted 5ltr V8 in a front engined V6 Alfa Romeo Coupé. Sweet!

[@scottloder7976]

I had a Alfa 1750 GTV when I was in my 20s that handled like that. like you were on rails, but if you pushed it too far would let go the rear very quickly. Great car I wish I hadn't sold it they are worth a small fortune now.

[@britishminiclub]

Oh wow 🤩 Your face was a picture. We’ve known Z Cars for a while and they produce incredible rear engined Classic Mini’s. This one certainly blew your doors off 😎

Fabulous car and a wonderful noise, what they have done to this car is absolutely outstanding. Cant wait to see the other cars of Daves.

[@DavidFisk-q8d]

Pete Pete Pete, a mini is a mini not something you transplant everything other than a shell to cover the internals. While I applaud the engineering and application and the thrill of its ability, which is very impressive. The Project Binki Mini was enjoyable to watch by the Bad Obsession crew putting it together, yet to be finished though. All good. Cheers and thank you once again

[@PetrolPed]

Thanks Dave. That’s the plan 👍

[@Ritalie]

Living in America, every older mechanic has a V8 car of some kind with a carburetor. I've seen a million old muscle cars, and trucks with a plain V8. They sound good, but they are all the same. I have never in my life seen a Mini like this in real person in the States, or if I have, it was maybe only once as a kid. The custom cars like this, which have custom engines, are so much cooler than any factory V8 car with a standard style engine. There's something so special about cramming the wrong engine into a car, and re-engineering the entire car to make it work. And the sound!? WOW. This thing is awesome. The sound is better than any 4 cylinder, and certainly better than the Subaru EJ25 version..

[@terptv710]

[@ian_md]

Slightly different path to this one but I think the future for electric power units in retro cars (and some new cars) is promising. Pricey to convert right now, but as supply improves and experience, we should see a wave of sleeper cars from a bygone era detroying some modern stuff.

[@PetrolPed]

Yep. That’s what we do on Vintage Voltage 👍

[@ZEPRATGERNODT]

@Mark Brown I agree but it’s interesting that GM is introducing the Chevrolet Performance eCrate system soon and it won’t stop with just the one.

Many moons ago, I owned a Civic VTi-S (only 500 were imported to the UK) which was equipped with a LSD from the factory and it's that car that learnt me how to drive a FWD properly due to the steering feel. Unfortunately, a diesel VW Passat bloody T-Boned me and wrote it off.
