seen a few minis around here, i'm mostly found on the a96 heading to the monster trails at Fochabers. Been on a few runs now, last one, the marmaa run to the evo triangle back in March. Look forward to a few round this way.

cheers, betty

Sweet looking car! I'd love to know what you think of the roof rack and how it works? I hope its not like the old one where you had to drill it to the roof!

Cheers for the welcomes folks!


Stunning car very nice indeed. Have u done anything to it or any future plans.

Thanks, I'm a fan of your chilli red, i presume it's fairly new? Was going to carbon up the back by getting a diffuser and tailgate handle, think it would break up the lines a little bit. I saw Roma's (off total mini) PW JCW with all the carbon bits and it looked sweet, but just dropped a load of cash on a new mountain bike so prob have to wait until post xmas! Deffo no performance mods planned. The headlight rings are just plastidipped and toyed with the idea of black wheels when I first got it but decided I'm happy with the silver. Everyone seems to have black wheels now!!

Cheers dude! The roof rack is an excellent (only) piece of kit, means i can transport the bike with no hassle and no mess. There are mounting points under the rubber behind the rain guttering on both sides so its a case of removing the rubber, seating the feet and tightening up. Two man job to put them on but I use my bike quite often so haven't had them off since I got them. The bike carrier is a rebranded Thule proride 591 and works a treat. North Oxford Mini told me only the mini carrier would fit :ragin: so for my second carrier i'll be going to eBay!

I'll be sure to look out for your car, can't be many around these parts?

cheers again,

Yeh its just 6 weeks old or so. A bit more CF is defo on the plans. JCW carbon spoiler and gloss black on the wheels I think. Cheers for the comments and again enjoy the site.
