TMF's own Samsfern came round before Gaydon in his Citreon Gayx. We thought we'd best mark the occasion:

Also a picture of my spare grille, pre-debadging. And a picture the night I got it, as you can see it was pitch black by the time I'd finished washing it.

Lol, my boots the same colour as your car!

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

LOL!! True

[Mini-Mad-Craig]

Debadging as it happens. Well not really... but my spare grill is coming on nicely. I doubt I'll use it, since Im proud to drive a Rover, but its a nice side project.

The badge is off, and the area is smooth. Just needs some plastic cut to shape and filled in, top lip filled a little and then prep for paint.

Thanks! You're right, the car does look great polished!



Just kidding. Yeah!! From Tesco online. I bought them a few years ago, I think it came to £16 all in! Check the website, I'm not sure if they're still on though.

Thanks! Yeah the auto lets it down, but as a first car I'll mostly be using it to get experience on the road and get myself super confident with everything before I get a Mini. That way I'll be less likely to make a stupid mistake and bin another Mini!

The Autobox is actually pretty good fun as it go's. Cruising along very nicely, 70 no trouble with plenty left to give. Its not an engine you want hot anyway, so being an auto is probably best for now.
