My ex girlfriend bought a bargain of a Mini Convertible...

It was a Keiths Convertibles conversion, and the best looking, and value for money, conversion in my opinion.

This had been sat around for a few years and was dull and faded, but the Mini Centre she bought it from let her have it at a reasonable price, as long as all they did was get an MOT on it... and NO sprucing up!

so this was it when it came home

Looks like a good project.

It's funny how these Minis with the Keith convertible kit seem to always be red! :lol:

Luckily for me, the company i work for has a warehouse with some space.... so i talked to my boss nicely, got the keys and took the Mini off and spent the weekend in there with my Meguiars stash, and my new polisher!!

Meguiars collection, well some of it!!
