I see you also did some kind of car show/day trip with a couple of other A2 owners, was that organised through this web site? I used to be involved back in the day with a Mini club in Musselburgh, but that was about 20 odd years back and have always fancied getting involved in something like that again. The A2 is one of those unique cars that lends itself to that type of club.
I'm starting to look into getting stuff on the car sorted, the drivers door microswitch is knackered, the cd changer in the boot no longer links to the head unit (I've played about with the cable and not sure if its the cable from the head unit or the cable from the changer that is at fault), i'd like LEDs inside the car, and possibly change the reversing lights to LED as well as change the number plate lighting over to LED as well. A set of speakers in the rear doors would be nice too. The passenger sides electric window plays up occasionally but I think its down to the switch rather than the motor, I'd also like to replace the worn buttons on the AC and the electric window drivers buttons. It sounds like a piece of **** eh, but generally the car looks good apart from the above!
I did get the wheels refurbished back in 2012 by a crew up at Sighthill Ind Est who promised me that they would blast the old paint work off the wheels before repainting them, however a couple of years after getting them done the Wife kerbed one of them pretty badly and exposed the shoddy work, they had actually painted over the top of the old ****, wasn't happy but too late to get onto them as they had gone out of business.
Did you manage to track down the LED side lights ?
Let me know a day and time that suits you and you can spin by the house.
Cheers
