@shahzad727...
Me,my wife,daughter,6 years old son and a servant.So altogether we were 5...rear seat of mini is quite big and can accommodate two adults easily and comfortably..Ride comfort is ok if the road is not very bumpy...
I feel that we were carrying too much load or at least it was more than the capacity of mini.power was not enough for Lulusir lake and SPECIALLY FOR SHOGRAN.had to shift in Low 4...
its a gas guzzler...fuel consumption is exactly like land cruiser..( I am not joking)...due to less weight and bulk,it was a little easy on rough and narrow roads..overall not a bad experience..but still its a mini ....

@jangli_decent...
thanks dear.

@shahzad727...
To be very honest,I did not drive LC since my last trip to Nathia Gali...actually some construction work is going on at home and all the cars are sleeping including LC.....
Only one corolla and RX7 are in use.

we had no other option except to take all the luggage down and take care of the carrier..

Mounting brackets removed....

sir ji ...keep picturs cmg.....it thought ur mini was 1100cc ,but considering 660cc it did a hell of a job......
plz post pictures of ut RX 7 as well...

Found notches of original carrier place which I missed when installing this carrier..put the feet of carrier just ahead of the notches in the carrier Rail which prevented it from sliding back....but had to install some extensions on the brackets..

@060276...
yes it was 660 cc and not 1100 and we were loaded heavily....There are many pics of Rx7 in different threads of PBC trips..I will post more as you said..

Also noticed that one front clip of under shield is missing and it was very close to the wheel.I am talking about the plastic one...used 10mm nut bolt instead of original clip which were available in our big tool kit..

spitfire (spitfire) 2010-04-20 15:57:41 +0500 #34

All the luggage back on the roof rack and we were ready to move again.....perspiring like hell as you can see..:(...

@wasay_ahmed...
Oh So do I brother....I really want to drive and enjoy these cars after applying so much efforts on them but what to do...I am the only person who has to take care of SO MANY things....
we kept on working on blue one..made all internal cards and fitted them in place..wiring is also partially done....
Red one back from the paint shop and in the back garage....have a lot of interesting pics of both the cars to share with you brothers....
but dedication is very much there...
One bedroom and two stores of my house is full with parts of these cars....
some parts are lying on the bed and no one allowed to enter or even clean the premises....
Just to prove,took few pics from my mobile right now to show you the intensity of love with these pieces of metal:) and pathetic condition of one of our bed rooms...
watch..

see different parts of spitfires lying on our double bed...gear box tunnel cover made from steel sheet also lying with the bed.
boot cards also visible at right lower corner of the pic..
