Big fan of this. A mini doesn't have to be all original as it left the factory. They are original though. This is original, ignore the haters and its you who drives it.

This car cracks me up - I did appalling things to my first mini 2 when I started driving yonks back but nobody cared or criticised me 'cause back in 1988 older minis were just old bangers and not 'classics'.

It's your car, everything you've done is pretty easily reversible anyway so no prob imho - I'd sticker bomb the arches as well!

If I saw it parked up with that exhaust on it though I'd have to fight off the temptation to roll so marbles down it...............

Looks even better now it's been lowered!
where the bloody hell you get that island light thing from just casually tied to your roof rack lol!

Cheers mate! The island was an item one aquired after a night out, I had to pick it up from a mates hahaha

I do like the look of this car but please be careful you dont follow the likes of the noobs on ratlook.com where anything 'alternative' is wapped on the car. Sometimes subtle is the best way. Not saying yours is like this at all but it can be easy to go overboard when you get excited!

 

Thanks . I think I'm done with it now, there's not much I want to do now, I shall be concentrating on sorting out a K series project.

hahaha, cheers, mini's are funny little cars anyway! That's what I was thinking, have a little fun but not wreck the car. All the stuff I've done to it are easily changeable, nothing hadsbeen cut or damaged!

So, I went to my first L2B the other weekend! Absolutely hilarious, leaving at 04:30, have to jack it up and raise the rear HiLo's to stop it rubbing! Here was four of us in the car, cramped and the little 998cc soldiered on! I've already put pics up so here's one, check out my centre cap



Also put in my mountney wheel and added a genuine Ferrari centre badge

Shame to see it back to standard I really liked what you did even though I normally hate rat look stuff.
If you're putting it up forsale I'd get some cheap alloys for it, makes it much easier to sell!

Cheers for all the comments guys I'm glad people really liked the car as much as I did! I've had soo many comments on how different it looks and how cool it was in it's final stages. I'd like to know what you guys liked best
