How many matt black mini owners are out there? I wonder if there is enough to create a unique mini stand that rivals 'Pink my ride'? It would be awesome to get a few of us together and aim towards magazine coverage.

Mines matt black I think there is enough s/s and chrome to attract magpies and create accidents than without the shiny paint

I have a matt black mini

I know of 10 at the moment, even a stand of 6 would be a pretty awesome sight. Free/reduced entery to shows, extra interest in cars, (better than being in a car park), and looking at the coverage the pink club gets i reckon a few shots could also get published. Lets see how many replies we get! I can be very determined when i want to be. I organised a large RR session a year or two back which got a brilliant write up in Mini World.

Heres a photo of my brothers, we painted it a few months ago. It was originally a very sorry looking Ritz. Mines going to be very similar.

If you ever need a hand just give me a shout. I have a decent compressor sitting in my garage. Do you go to John Willmott by any chance?

I cant believe you used a roller. It looks sweet as!
