The interior has a brand new burr walnut dash with three clocks, brand new motolita steering wheel and boss, new carpets and floor matts, alloy door trim, new seat belts, carbon wrapped centre console and leather seats. The centre cross member has been lowered so there is a surprising amount of head room inside, Paul Higgins is 6"2 and he can drive it no problem. The roof lining is a modified Mk1 item with a LED light bar in the centre. There is a JVC head Blue Tooth unit with CD/AUX, JL audio dash mounted speakers and matching 6x9s on the rear shelf and a hidden kill switch for security. The Mini has just had an MOT so not due until October 2015 and is taxed until May so it can be driven away not that the tax makes a difference anymore. This Mini is great fun to drive."

I haven't seen a roofchop since the 80s. Nice.

As I recall, even de-seaming is a major pain in the arse, so a roofchop is BRAVE!
