Oh Col, we've been through this HOW MANY TIMES!!;):D At £1.15 a day, it's worth it, but on top of having to pay for the rest of the car.... oh hang on, you're getting a HUUUUUUGE wage rise!!:p

It's entirely up to you mate, although I do think £1500 is a bit much for it, if only there were a decent dealer around that would be willing to admit this and drop the price, but hey-ho what can you do!!;):D:clown:

I'd say go for it Col.... i dont think i've ever seen a yellow Cooper/S with an Aero Kit on it to date on the road (other than pictures) ... and it adds to the looks of it ... im sure Willie would agree hehe.

Also get ur arches colour coded, new wheels, etc etc... gonna get expensive mate hope u know what ur gettin yerself into :)

Big Col
27th November 2004, 12:11 AM
I'm not gonna get the arches done but the new wheels are ordered. :)

27th November 2004, 12:13 AM
ooh nice... i seen a pic of a yellow S with arches done (no aero kit tho) ... looked pretty damn nice have to say :)

I was going to say no don't do it but then thot about it more and just before I decided I couldn't afford mine anymore I was seeing too many yellow MINIs and then FAR too many yellow S's so I'd say go for anything that makes it look that wee bit different Col!!!! From one yellow S owner (just about not) to another (just about yes)
