I've officially become a MINI freak today - 2 MINI's on drive way

Hehe .. Well I guess I've been a freak since the first day I got my Pure Silver Cooper , now back end of march 2002. .. and through the years it didn't dissapear either

But from today I guess my friends and neighbours will definitely find me a total MINI freak or even a nutter !!
why?

Well later on today I'm collecting my new company car ...
a MODBEP, or a MINI One Diesel Black Eye Purple in full

Will I dump the old Cooper ..... no way !!

So I guess people will declare me mad when they now see 2 MINI's in front of the house

I just can't wait

Yup, that's the one (just double checking your English )

Sounds like a pretty nice spec for a company car, much better than the usual Ford/Vauxhall (Opel) rep mobiles...

Thanks all

I had a 318D and it had too much mileage for the leasing company, so had to go back in.
Because the boss said the new 3 series was too expensive and I would receive a "smaller" car, I asked for a MINI .. and got one

It's nice ... normally it was a Solid Black first, but in the end they opted for this one.
I didn't mind .. it was a MINI and indeed with some nice specs

I guess I'll have to start with a reset of the system first and add those white side repeaters (on order)
OMG a company car and modding already ... LOL

I like your style - and his!

Are you going to do much to it? I know when BP had a loan car over a weekend when her Cooper was in being fixed after her accident, both of us were dying to change those indicators... swap a stubby aerial... get some silver look bulbs...

yup bulbs are on the list too.
I'll first have to take a look further.
from a bad pic I received ... It looks like they made a mistake while adding the chrome exterior pack
It seems like an old upper bonnet grill and the new facelift model grill beneath the bonnet.
I could be wrong but if that's the case... that spare grill in my garage could come in handy

hehe thanks BP
At least I have "a loaner" if someone comes over

I'll post pictures as soon as possible, here's the one I took when I fetched it.



First 2 mods are done ... white side repeaters and silver vision bulbs for the front repeaters.
