:P you finished it!! Hadnt been on here in ages and i missed it!!

Nice one, that is one awesome mini!! I still think clear indicators would suit it better but thats just me ;)

And the wheels you have on it suit it better than any mini wheels imo, they suit the lines, just whack some centre caps on them and some lower profile tyres and thatll be sweet :D

Who am i to contradict though lol, its an epic car!!

Bl**dy Mini !!!!!!!!!!!, on the way home tonight the gearchange
roll pin decided to go walkies half way home and I was stuck in 4th
gear!! then every light was red and all junctions were busy.
So I had to slip the clutch and keep the revs high to pull off.GGrrr!!
People must have thought I was an OAP the way I was driving..
All sorted now though (In the rain)..
After 4 yrs of devotion you would have thought Ratty would be
a bit kinder to me :P
