Fantastic! Love the colour!!

The orange (poo) coloured one in the background is what mine is now and it's interesting to see the Arum white against the old english white one next to it.

Good choice of colour me thinks!!!

does anyone know the paint code for tarten red??

Try looking on minicolours.com or co.uk (forget which one)

Or if it's the original colour it should have the code stamped into the vin/chassis plate under the bonnet.

i admit mine's taken ages, but that's becaue i've been lazy, overall, youy're looking at about three weeks in a nice warm garage.

I'm really sorry guys, pics are on my computer but i've had do send my camera off to get fixed, I keep promising photos and then not putting any up. anyway, i should be posting pictures in the next two weeks.....

don't give up on me.



I woudln't charge to do someone elses car,....

[andysmini1]

I have orderd my paint and will be spraying it. Baring in mind that 2.5 litres is suposed to do 2 mini's, would 1 2.5 litre tin do one car sprayed inside and out, doors and boot/bonnet - but not the roof as that will be a different colour?
