Nice one Duncan. What model is it and is that the original state or has someone been doing a lot of work on it?

I love the shine on that paint.
Looking forward to seeing how it progresses.

nice one Duncan!! Love the Italian Job Special Editions Is it a carb or injection one?
"You're only supposed to take the bloody wheels off!" Lovely Jubbly Duncan - next NMS run - Turin and some Alpine passes?
Looks like a nice solid wee motor - full of potential. If it was mine, it'd either stay red and get a black roof, or go Old English/Pepper White, black roof and be a 'MINI Look-a-like' G3 ELF, of course with Minilites etc and some tasty mods to chase down its 'big brother'! I really like that red though...
Every time I see something like this, I want one, but I just don't have the room and don't want to get rid of my Mum's 106, so it's just a pipe dream...

Thanks Euan
It should have bonnet stripes just like my R56 (black with white pinstripe) so I've bought a set of these.
This is a press photo of how it should look
Grille should be white, and bumpers black but I'm going for stainless steel (and a bit lower! )
I'm seriously thinking of painting the roof black so it's the same colours as my R56
Very good.
Yeah italian job special editions should have white wheels 12s. I had a set of white 12s that I removed from a smashed one at the breakers in Galashiels but ended up powder coating them silver for another mini.
