Wow alot of work has gone into this. I agree with the above. Get rid of the spoiler. What colour are you going to paint it. A full union jack paint job would look swish on this this.

to be honest guys you lot don't no what your talking about, mini's should be kept classic, not made into a smurf car and as for the lights, they are very ugly and dont suit the mini

I totally agree with you about the 'ironing board' However I think removing it would be more trouble than its worth. Looking at that picture again it does seem to make it look more hidious than it actually is(still not great, But in the flesh its not as noticable)

To be honest you need to keep your fatuous opinion to yourself.

If you dont like something, dont go telling the owner. And saying that we don't know what we're talking about is just plain rude. You don't know every single one of us personally so i would keep your thoughts to yourself.

AdamBilsy - good luck with whatever path you plan to take with this Mini.

Well nice mate. Its really different and thats what makes mini and shows what they are! keep at it. And ignore the CorsaKid, clearly an under-educated pikey.

1 litre corsa orrrr a very well done Kitted mini.

Hmmmmmm i know what I'd choose.



Very intersting car mate, sooo much work must have gone into getting that looking right.


Ignore any negative comments, you built the car for you not everyone else.
