thankfully these arent on minis, (or ive never seen them) :L but them bonnet bra things !

I keep seeing those and I've always wondered what they're called and what the purpose of them is, so thanks for mentioning these, after a quick search on google I now feel enlightened and I too agree with you, I'm not too keen either!!

As for the other things I dislike in a mini are bucket seats in a standard mini, especially with the harnesses, is it really necessary?

Clubman fronts that have been put on round nose minis just to get a bigger engine in. I know its not easy but whenever I have seen them I just think the builder was lazy. Bonnet bulges and trimmed grills to get one in I have no problem with. My x18xe1 will be squeezed in under a standard length round nose.

Extended round noses. Same as above

De-seemed minis. Just doesn't look right.

Sound systems under the rear seats. Dead weight in my mind (to be honest this applies to any car not just minis)

Central mounted back boxes. Just doesn't look right in my mind

Minis that have had the back lowered so they appear level. They are not supposed to be level.

Show cages. Have no function other than weigh a car down.
