so how is the Migraine?
Saw a lovely dark blue Evo 9 in KFC yesterday...

It's absolutely fab, I love it!! Don't mention evo's, still a sore point for me, still miss Marvin terribly!!:(:( But the migraine does help the recovery of that sad loss, alot!! Probably not the best place to mention that it ranks second out of all the cars I've owned!!

Ian, I see no-one has commented on the issue of having the front done. Don't really want to start a flame war again - the last time was not pleasant. But the truth is, the standard colour in the front windows appears to be just on the legal limit. Anything else you put on will render the car illegal. I know folk will be on here in a shot telling me I'm talking porkies and even one person will no doubt come on and say "well I don't care, I think my MINI is lovely, legal or not". But that won't help them in court when the person is in the dock for causing the death of a child on a bike they didn't see coming because of the tints.

I can see your arguement here, but I can't see how tints affect your vision, mine are dark and I can see oot nae bother! Does that mean sunglasses should be banned too?? The gen I got from the local traffic bobbies at one of my recent traffic co-ord meetings (part of work!) was that the only reason they don't like the front windows done is they can't see which ned is driving:)! I know they're illegal and I take my chances, just like when the speedo on my car reads 67mph, which in turn could also result in a kiddie getting knocked off their bike:disapprove:!! :sleepy: I don't speed in built up areas and I don't blether on the phone even with a stupid ear piece while driving, that's good enough for me!!

I never ordered the factory tints at the time of ordering as I didnt realise that I fancied them.
According to the boy at tinthaus the stuff they put on the front is so slight that it isnt illegal. Check out their web site as it explains about it on there.
I kept saying to their man that I did not want to be illegal and that I did not want any bother from the bobbies. He said this is fine.
I have organised tinthaus to do the work at Eastern before I pick the car up.
