I don't know. It's an 05 Chilli.

Should there be something else. Please help.

Tit · Feb 16th, 2005, 11:08 AM

are you saying you can't see the orange half of them? might be the angle?

BenM · Feb 16th, 2005, 11:18 AM

Don't stress mary...

The photo just looks like the indicators have the much 'cooler' looking clear bulbs, instead of the standard orange ones which can be seen even when not illuminated.
Prob. a trick of the light in the pic.

Slide-o-rama · Feb 16th, 2005, 11:19 AM

congratulations mary!

very nice motor. I look forward to seeing you on some runs when I get mine.

Hello,

Back from another run around the place and pressing more buttons and flicking more switches.

It is stunning how well it handles, I am totally impressed.

See you around,

MC

sorry to scare your mary, there's absolutely nothing wrong with your MINI

the reason i commmented was that from the pic it would seem that you've got some [highly sought after] parkers that don't shoe orange from the indicators

now go out & enjoy MOTORing for a few days

Oh, now I am under pressure.

The parkers are clear and the blinkers cannot be seen from outside. I didn't notice that until it was mentioned, very cool I have to say.

Congrats Mary!

minigolf · Feb 17th, 2005, 01:34 AM

The same way that most other Australians miss things about Canberra.

10am..

Congratulations Mary. I'm looking forward to seeing the car (and meeting you guys of course) on Saturday. Go on give HIM a drive too....

AndrewH · Feb 17th, 2005, 09:34 AM

Congratulations Mary!!!

Bit odd about the 2 tone bonnet scope though? Would be interesting to know the truth behind it - but I suppose you'll probably never know? When I got mine, it had 16" 5star alloys on it instead of the x-lites (swapped over before I took delivery though) - kind of defeats the purpose of getting it built to order

mrgolf · Feb 17th, 2005, 09:46 AM

Heh. Yet another happy MCS owner. Congrats.

Whereabouts in Narrabundah are we meeting?

robbo mcs · Feb 17th, 2005, 10:18 AM

Hi MaryC,

Congrats on your car

and welcome

I checked out your gallery, and I must say I have never seen anything like that intercooler scoop

Very strange

However, I am sure it will be fixed properly

I like your co-driver as well

Enjoy yourselves

Cheers

Robbo

maryc · Feb 17th, 2005, 10:36 AM

Hello all,

Are we smiling or what???? It is brilliant, I am like the village idiot with a grin on my dial.
The co-pilot is also very happy. He disappeared at lunchtime to show it off to his mates.

Saturday at Narrabundah, 10am at JEM cafe around the corner from Iluka Street - the shops in fact.

See you all on Saturday,

Mary
