Scotland My new toy: Marvin the Mini

We'll after waiting what seemed like an eternity my new toy arrived 3 weeks early!

Heres some photos of Marvin (My lady has named it, how sad!):

On Wednesday when i picked Wee Marv (Its Stuck) up:



Then on Friday after getting the roof and mirror caps sprayed:



What do you think? I'm gonna get some bigger alloys and the aero side skirts as soon as possible to finish Wee Marv off. Any one got any other mod's i should be looking to do?

Super

Marvelous Marv!!!

Marv looks marvelous !

You need to think of a theme, and then you will have possibly many mods to add on (unless you go minimilist theme of course)

I used to have a leccie blue, but nothing really seemed right to add on except the aero kit! The metallic paintwork was enough finish for me!

Now I specifically went for a solid base colour White! And now will be doing the black and white plus chequer theme! By the way it ain't so sad to name your mini bro! mines Charlie! Check point Charlie! Just browse away at web pics you will get there!!
