That is lovely
I am repainting mine at the minute in new mini charcoal grey and can't decide on black roof or not. Do you have any pictures of the car outside so i can get a good look at it.

With the 7 port head is there any way to fit inside bonnet?

yes u can but you have to use very short ram pipes with built in mesh filters,but i want longer 1's for bit more lower down power

well should have some pictures 2moro at the show,
minis always gota have different colour roofs,(my opinion)

Where is the show please. I am only in westbury so may pop along and have a look as need inspriation after chopping half of mine off today

The show is at Easter Compton, Washingpool Farm just off J17 M5. Hopefully will be signposted!

Saw this one at Bristol mini day today and it's got me wanting a 7 port head for the estate.

It really does look even better in person, I've now if this picture set as the wall paper on the mac.

had a mag photo shoot 2day,
6 hours and like 200 pictures and a mug shot.
it was brillant to see the pictures properly done and how good it really looked with all the lighting.
when i was listing the spec on it,it seemed to go on forever,
well off to slarks on fri to have it set up and all the suspension done too, and see what its really got.

Congratulations you really deserve it this is an awesome mini. Are you allowed to tell what mag the shoot was for?

[AndrewJ530]

If not do let us know what mag it is closer to the time as i'd like to see the photos. I really like the bonnet on this 7 port. Especially the little bit that stcks down between the split webers.

EDIT: What did you use to trim the hole for carbs?
