Behold, my friends, the mad experiment has worked, my Dr Jekyll MINI has finally become Mr. Hyde.

Now does that look mean or what?

Here's the before and afters...

Professor Peach · Apr 15th, 2008, 07:12 PM

PS. We need a name for my mean lookin' MINI.

Darth Vader is current favourite, but I'm open to suggestions?

supa-dupa-cooper · Apr 15th, 2008, 07:14 PM

Looking good

Darthbladerni · Apr 15th, 2008, 07:19 PM

Looking very good!!!

mister.t · Apr 15th, 2008, 07:20 PM

That looks fantastic

Worth the wait then

Re a name - There may be a clue perhaps in the reg no - Ours was named after some letters in the reg no

What was wrong with Hyde?

Goonery · Apr 15th, 2008, 07:23 PM

It will be getting a personal plate as soon as they can sort out the paperwork to transfer it from my current car, so good idea, but won't work in this instance.

Hyde only works in the Jekyll & Hyde context, which since it's staying transformed won't really work. I think Darth Vader suits it better but open to any suggestions of anything more appropriate.

We did the same thing - Had the reg plate for all of about a week or so then went straight to private plate. I quite like the name Stig for some reason

Mejy Poo · Apr 15th, 2008, 07:59 PM

Professor Peach!!!!!!!!

Your car looks AMAZING!!

Really wanted to see an Astro Black car with the JCW kit on - it looks simply superb.

Now I need to find a grand to buy one for my car!!!

I am truly jealous... Need to hammer the on call at work methinks and put my wedding on hold Ha!

Fevs · Apr 15th, 2008, 08:01 PM

Professor Peach · Apr 15th, 2008, 10:11 PM

Fanks all.

I have to say I'm very pleased with the finished result.

Getting a boot tidy thing too with a Union Jack lid, so it's all black and discreet on the outside, open the boot and you're greeted with a big Union Jack on the boot floor!

You missed mine!

Snap Professor Peach! Done over 500 miles in mine now

. Will write a mini-report once I get to the milestone of 1250 miles

.

Hope the weather will be nice your way at the weekend

.

Professor Peach · Apr 16th, 2008, 09:09 AM

Tunster, snap indeed!!

Only difference on the outside is the wheels and mirrors (and I have a sunroof).

And the inside is the same as well! Black Punch leather, Piano Black trim, dark grey colourline, chrome edged bezels, even the hi fi speakers.

Only real difference is I've opted for the anthricite headlining.

Your car looks great by the way.
