Post Today's Courier Mail - featuring... me!

The article I mentioned quite a few weeks ago finally appeared in today's paper.

Pretty good write-up about customising cars in QLD: A Pink '63 VW beetle, a Phoenix-yellow BMW Z and my MINI and I.



And best of all, they gave me a new car! I now own a Black Cooper! It was BRG when I checked on it in the garage this morning, but the article says I have a 'black Mini Cooper' so they must be right!

Hrrm, it looks like the mini2 photo galleries has resized the image smaller.
Here's a bigger copy on my own website if you want to actually read it: Courier Mail - Local Customs

I installed some super-cool mirror-cloud decals onto my bonnet. They only show up when clouds of exactly the same shape and colour appear in the sky above
