yer its not cream or OEW, its a colour called sandy beige, love it to bits, there is a mk2 mini on miniworld as a cover car that has it all over, its so so nice! im not having a black roof as its not a cooper, and mk3's never had contrasting roofs anyways so all over in beige then do my wheels black and silver spoked...

glad you all like him, like i say, wil prob be in the summer when i have spare time and money... im taking him to uni with me, so look out for him around hatfield in hertfordshire!

im gonna see if i can get him into the welding yard at uni and sort out some little rust bits!

When you say about black and silver wheels, why not try dunlop D1's, got to admit I do like them :(

Yeah, saw the mini in miniworld and the colour is certainly something a bit different. will you be going with that fancy twin tank arrangement?

What events is the bean going to? Good luck with getting the work done
