Pics were taken locally

Got a big soft spot for any Works conversion/JCG car but 3 is a bit silly. Bought Gus last year because I'n never seen a 500 with the conversion and couldnt resist, they're pretty rare and he had a few things that needed sorting out, so a bit of a winter project.

Our thinking being we'd decide which 2 to keep in the New Year. Do love him hes got the most poke of the three but more attatched to M&P

Plus I have my eye on an older mini :lol: and I cant get more than 3 in the garage >_<

They are beautiful, love the interior shots. That red Cooper S interior :wub:

You should definitely enter those interior pictures into one month in the calendar. I reckon that's what we where missing last year, a picture of a stunning interior of a Mini!

Paddy's is nice but quite standard looking as per other late LE models. Not that I don't love it!

Max's looks like it could be in a Rolls!

Poor Gus, an outsider with his own thread and not allowed to join in on this one.

All three are seriously nice cars though. I think the rarity of the red interior in Paddy adds to the appeal, however I wouldn't say no to having Max's interior. The only thing I'm not a fan of in Paddy is the steering wheel. I don't like those Rover airbag wheels in Minis - they just don't look right. I know if you remove it, the light will stay on etc and that is why people keep them but I would rather they hadn't included it from the start.

Just out of interest, which earlier Mini do you have you eye on, or are you just looking in general at the moment? I think you will end up with a Mk 1 Cooper S just to complete the set.

Mr Ghost I TOTALLY agree with you :proud: ....I had another Mota Lita steering wheel and wanted to put it in Paddy but like you said the airbag made me stick with it. But it would look alot better!

I'd have to sell Max or Paddy to justify a Cooper S but one day maybe sighhhhhh :shifty:

If I'm going to own 3 mini's I want an older one in my little collection which is why Gus has to go :cry: ..... as Mr BCJames pointed out I have my eye on an Innocenti :proud:
