First car I ever drove, I was maybe 8 or 9.
My dad had rather interesting taste in cars.
I would ruin that so hard.

My friend is selling a subframe/B18/5spd that would bolt right into this if you want to make it fast
The ones with auto trans are slower than slow. The manual ones are the ones - 1275cc replaces smaller 9xx engines in Minis so they got scooped up years ago.
You'll hate this car.
