Twin carb fed Mini tears up the countryside. Loud, lairy - and very very purple? Most definitely.

PPC's Will Holman checks out Alex and Karl's father-son built Mini that's thoroughly unsubtle (in the best way possible) and is fed by forward hanging twin 40 Weber carbs. Induction noise? This classic road-going go-kart certainly has that.

That is one pretty Mini, not to mention it seems like a bit of an animal too.

Many thanks to Will and the team. Sadly i couldn't be there on the day, (hospital!) but a great video, and many thanks to all the people who have left such kind comments. Mad Bess is something myself and Alex are quite proud of and yes, driveway built !!

Bliddy hell what a noise, fully agree with Alex, bike conversions etc are fine but they do alter the handling, cant beat a good stout A series, was into Mini's years ago, ultimate i had was a Mk3 with a 1380 Swiftune motor, always dreamed of a 7 Port with Webers.

Glad you enjoyed. Yeah, the noise was spectacular echoing through the trees. The dog walkers probably loved it just as much..!

I'm not keen on minis as I'm 6'4" and don't fit them very well. However, anything built outdoors on a driveway and completed is a story worth hearing. Top job.

I am so glad he kept the a series, I think it tales away the character of a Mini when people swap them out.

Absolutely. No problem with a Hayabusa swap but keeping the A series is a nice touch - and it was done very well too

The proximity of those stacks from the bonnet must be an issue
