Good to see you have changed your signature now! Would be interesting to see the black car with orange roof, and wheel centres tho.

I like the silver wheels myself - just coloured them in for Deathrow - but do like the black centres, have had them on a couple of cars, including the Cobra

hi is that a datsun in the back ground ? if so what model. an is it 4 sale.
cheers simon.

The little bronze car is a Suzuki Fronte GX - a 360 cc two stroke Suzuki Car from 1972. Smaller, lighter than a Mini, I would say might go slightly quicker than a standard 1000 cc Mini, or at least feels quicker. Cool fun little car. Has a broken transaxle at the moment, must fix it. Not for sale unless there is a big offer, and... I am in New Zealand.

http://en.wikipedia....i/Suzuki_Fronte - see the second photo - shows the shape.

Here is an orange one with Black roof and Wheels (to get us back on topic slightly)

I don't think this has been asked before, I've searched a few times and not found anything.

Basically, I'm torn between two colour schemes for my car:

Black with black arches, wheels and an orange roof and orange wing mirrors.

Or

Orange with black wheels, black roof, black wing mirrors and black arches.

So if anyone is willing to help I'd like to see as many pictures of orange minis as I can before I have to make a decision.

Please, i really need to make a decision here.

Thanks guys .

Here's our latest edition, we have just repainted it in the original Flamenco red with a black roof

righto, it just reminds me of an old datsun i think a 100a my dad had yrs ago.

Was orange with black bumpers, std wheels, and black tinted windows.

I have done before, I just for the life of me can't find it anymore.

Worked out why I couldn't find it, I made it on my laptop, doh.



I hope the owner of the original image doesn't mind.

It does look good, but I'm just not sure I'd be as happy with it as I would be with the orange with black.
