I've never been referred to as hottie or flashy even when I have money whats the other simpleton that rings a bell, I've been called that numerous times .
  • Early days: Look-alikes, for Insurance purposes.
  • Mid 20s: Stealth, 5dr Fiesta pop plus (wheel trims), full turbo engine, running gear (uprated) etc... etc... (embarrassed a few Boy-racers & Old-man racers ).
  • 30s: Van.
  • Mid 30s: mid-life crisis, fancy a Transit all the extras alloys, viper stripes, metallic paint etc... etc... (They do do them and they look ).
  • Other ½: MINI ONE fully kitted up loads of extras bog-standard engine & running gear, Insurance purposes.

MINIs I make them look nice not OTT, but each MINI depends on colour wether it gets stripes, chequered, colour coded, chromed etc... etc... But no engine mods or lowered suspensions as I leave that to the new owners.

So I guess it's a #6 on the MINI front and #1,#2,#3,#4 & #6 of the above throughout my life, never been into #5 myself, maybe as I get a little older .

Mine's the one on the left.
