that passenger tyre looks very low pressure wise.

It did have 28psi in it when i started lol. Think it was purely the way id turned in and the camber of the road

I do like your steering wheel, I got one similar but it needs recovering
@ the price of recovering steering wheels!

I also like them without the centre cap. It shows off the dish of the wheel off a bit more and you can get the small black plastic nut covers (caps) from minispares that make the centre look a bit more tidy. Thats my plan anyway.


I always planed on making my cooper SPI into a rally styled mini, but never got round to it. I guess it was a quarter of the way there...

Heres one of me "throwing her in" on this years moonbeam rally

Why do you have a sparkler mounted to the front subframe mount?!

Lol no actually, I know it could have read that way but the big red mudflaps are hardly an original idea!
I was thinking about it when I had the SPI, and it was all the fashion a few years ago.

In all honesty, I have kind of gone off the mudflaps nowdays!

Do you have red carpets in your cooper? My BRG SPI (as you can see in the pic I posted) has / had red carpets and its what prompted me to add more red to the car on the exterior. Only subtle things like red cooper stickers on the valve caps, a red ariel and a few other small touches but I imagine it works better with your motor as those big red bucket seats are such a prominent part of the car.



Maybe you should go for a red sparkler next time?!
