See, there you go again?

Do you mean Civic Type-R?

No offence (from me) smiffy, but your flag (also only available in three colours) leads me to believe that flat caps might be de rigueur where you come from.

Or am I thinking "bobble" hats and anoraks?

Jakx you say your from the UK, so in other words you mean England. This means you only have 2 colours available. Jakx I think you should calm down abit as I was only posting info on the type R. I dont work for Honda(& never have) & I have a new MINI on order.

smiffy · Jan 7th, 2002, 01:10 PM

What am I guilty of

Posting useless info

TAKE A JOKE

The only thing that bothers me, and it DOES bother me, about the MINI is the waist line (the line defined by the lower edge of the windows). I hate that "rolling downhill" look that all modern cars have. It reduces visibility and makes the car look less like a classic Mini. And, it simultaneously makes the car look smaller and clunkier.

I feel I should apologize for posting on-topic -- I'll stick this in: Basil, would you tell JonBlakeburn for me that his galleries are back online? I'd tell him myself, but 1) No one cares anyway, and 2) I look much more important saying it to the whole forum this way.

Only joking!

Yeah. But it has got a nice red "R" on it to distinguish it from the normal, un-modified flat cap!
