Anyone ever seen this MINI before. If you are near John Clark in Dundee it's worth having a look at. Supposedly it cost £28K when new! It started off as black and was resprayed pink for the customer. If I remember rightly it has a pink leather interior. If pink is you bag it's the MINI for you.

It has cream leather interior with a pink thread. Very bespoke car done for a Menzies customer. Yes, you can blame our very own Mr Broon for this!

On the forecourt at £21,995 eh? Holy-mother-of-all-that-is-residual-carnage!!:eek::eek::eek: Pretty sure it wasn't £28k new. Pretty sure it was a fair bit more than that, but I could be wrong.

And it's a shame it's being traded in so soon. For the right person, for the right reasons, it's a really nice looking car. Although I accept 99.99% of people (including me) wouldn't be seen dead in it.:eek:

Saw the pics of the car from being brought into stock at Menzies right through to the finished article - what an incredible amount of work was done on it :eek::eek:

Wouldn't like to try and sell it, think they might have that for a while :dead::I;)

I've no doubt that there is a lady out there (somewhere :eek:) with 22k to throw about desperate for a bubblegum pink Mini :clown::D Then again maybe not :dead: You never know in in these days of equal equality it may appeal to a bloke :eek::kiss::I;)

My girlfriend can NEVER see this, Dundee is off my list of places to go.
Let me know once its sold and the coast is clear.

She only bought it a few months ago did she not? Wonder why she got rid so quick.

I agree with Keith though. Lins will be getting told to look the other way when we go through Dundee!

I saw it when we were in Dundee yesterday and was offered the chance to go for a look, if it was in any dealers other than JC's then I would have done as I think that mini would suit me fine! It's pink (obviously) which would mean that Rob would NEVER drive it, but I doubt poor Craig would want to go in it either!!:I:kiss::D

Aye, residuals kind of go out the window when you do that sort of stuff to a car. :D

What the next owner should do is get some really crazy engine mods done to it and go and embarrass some Neds on the strip at Crail! lol

Yep, we seen it the other day when coming down the Kingsway in Dundee - knew it was ex.Menzies thanks to Clare!

It is very noticable!:D

It was me, I admit it!!! Im the guilty one who Sold this Lovely car!!! :p

Shows how much you REALLY can personalise MINI!! :D

The lady who bought it loved the car, it was due to unforseen circumstances that she had to part with it. If she could, she would still be driving it.

I think it's excellent, but I'm glad it was sold before our Claire saw it.....could have been very expensive:D Was the number plate for sale with the car? It alone has got to be worth a packet!

I saw this last week too, it must have been sold.

Strangely enough, it was in Sainsburys' car park in Dundee, in a DISABLED SPACE. Is Colour Blindness a disability?

"... Ahhhhhh Shaddupayaface!" :p:p:D:D:D:D

Well those spaces are designated for those with disabilities, so that it's easier for them to get into the shop, not the self important, ignorant masses who have the rest of the car park to choose from but are too lazy to walk a few extra steps to their car.

Don't even start me on the pillocks who never stop at pedestrian crossings in Supermarket Car parks to let people cross.. that's just fackn' rude :p:p:D:D:p:p
