hehe that's funny

Smurfn · Jun 21st, 2007, 08:51 AM

I don't think it is too bad, but I think they should do a Lime Green, or a nice bright purple

85NIXMIN · Jun 22nd, 2007, 03:21 PM

Now they would be nice colours!!!

Woah! Are you sure?! I find that the Mini gets SO much attention already. There will be a lot of sore necks I think ..

A couple of blokes have beaten you all to it with their Leyland Mini S (BTW I think they said the paint was worth more than the car!).

Just goes to show in today's society pink is not solely for women!

wendy99 · Oct 21st, 2007, 01:12 PM

I've seen plenty of pink minis... but did someone mention lime green?!! Don't remember where I found these pics ... but I LOVE this !!!

dsakko · Oct 21st, 2007, 11:04 PM

You've gotta admit, that's green!

My first Mini was a 1974 Leyland S in "Hairy lime" - wwas almost this exact colour, so I'll give this one two thumbs up!!!

Come to think of it Nixmin, that pink pik is on alexpalex's site, response-graphics.com. There's a spiffy orange one on there too... (I go for really bright cheesy colours, I know!)

I went to a car show with my boyfriend on the weekend, and we got talking to a guy from House of Kolor, who have the best custom paint colours... anyways I fell in love with a yummy shade of pink paint that changes to purple in the sun. He said for a mini it would cost around $2500 for the paint alone, not including the labour which would be thousands....

oooh crikey. I gotta long way to go.

ps. 3 cheers for ppl born in 85!

85NIXMIN · Nov 2nd, 2007, 08:52 AM

Ooooh it would be good to get my car sprayed... but I don't think I could do a pink or anything like that as my interior and door trims are red... Whoo they'd definetely see me comin'!

Indeed 3 cheers for people born in 85!

My birthday was on Sunday... whoo! I feel old...

dsakko · Nov 4th, 2007, 09:48 PM

That's mean. I moved decades in March this year. At least I'm old enough now to get insurance for a turbocharged car....

wendy99 · Nov 5th, 2007, 02:53 AM

Happy Late Bday Nix!!!

I know what you mean ... 22 ... I feel like I have to start being mature or something

dsakko - Lucky you. When I got my S at 21, nearly all insurance companies wouldn't even give me a quote, and the few I did get were insane. And I've never even had an accident or anything. Kept thinkin 'oh well, at least its only til I'm 25' ... But now I hear most have upped it to 30 ???!! Whaaat?!

Oh well, by the looks of it, I'll be 30 by the time I can afford to have a pink hotted up (and fully insured!) Mini. And by then I probably won't want one... *sigh*

85NIXMIN · Nov 5th, 2007, 05:11 AM

I was surprised that my insurance came down this year.... I used to pay $120 a month now its $104.... but then again I'm only driving a Cooper... hehe

dsakko · Nov 5th, 2007, 10:31 PM

wow! I must be old! I'm paying $55 a month.

What was insulting was when I was looking at getting a WRX - for me $185 a month, for my mother $75 a month.

Might have to convince her to buy one for me to drive!!!

wendy99 · Nov 6th, 2007, 01:17 AM

Hmmm... I'm thru NRMA and I pay around $120 a month. Surprised yours is so high for a Cooper Nix?? Or do you have mods covered too or something?

dsakko - Just had a giggle at your lil tagline coz you're a 'Mini2 Senior' citizen...

hehe ... I totally crack myself up sometimes...
Nah, if its the big 3-0 thats not even old (age is only a number anyway)... and $55 a month is pretty good!

I was thinking of rexys too before I got my MCS. When I got my mini insured, one company said Mini's are one of the most stolen cars - and more likely to be stolen than WRX's. I was suprised to hear that.

85NIXMIN · Nov 11th, 2007, 04:35 PM

I dont have any mods on my car... hmm it might be other coverage in it... like hire car/ other stuff like that, that i'm paying for...? Who knows.. haha
