Hello,

Thought it was about time i posted a few more pics. So................

Quite like this pic with the skyline of oxford in the background--- kinda looks like the mini is looking out over its kingdom lol

and the miltek exhaust....

Afetr 6 months of ownership I can honestly say I still get a kick out of driving and looking at the mini. Im a hopeless addict----- Luckily cowley-oxford is a good place to live if your a mini addict.

Next up is miltek exhaust system, goodyear eagle f1s, reduced pulley, one click remap and strut brace. Amd here i come

Advice is duley noted! Though at the minute, its the old dirty rag and hard work! Brings them up a treat!

Though do you have like black speckling in between the spokes? Like very small speckling? If you do, does the Meguirs take it off?

You need to use meguirs regularly to stop build up of break dust--- if you need to get that black speckling off use a product called "Wonder Wheels". Not cheap but you only need to brush a little on- lasts for ages

MINI Poser · Dec 2nd, 2004, 10:09 PM

And you know what finishes the look....white bonnet stripes!

Would make you car look MINT!

I've got that! But it don't work!

The brush however is very useful for getting in between the bolts and cleaning the muck out of them, but apart from that....it don't have any extra impact than me going round with a rag. THis is why I want to know if that Meguirs stuff works any better coz that would definitely interest me!

I would definately use ---i havnt used wonder wheels for ages as meguirs gets everything off- and its cheaper

You've sold me! Will now enquire as to how much it is! Thanks!

And err...I mean I haven't personally...a friend has...but have you scuffed your alloys on any kerbs at all?

Yes I have--- Hard not too round here there is so many narrow country lanes, and too many cars. Dont worry about it too much- as long as its just slight kurbing damage you get get wheels refurbished quite cheaply.

Looks brilliant mate, not much room for the weekly shop thou

Well I was just going to ask you if you had brought any wheel touch up paint if BMW actually do any for the wheels coz I scuffed both my left hand ones...grr! I nearly cried! And I ain't joking! So did you get your wheels refurbished or....?

ButtonIt · Dec 3rd, 2004, 03:36 PM

Where did you get this touch up paint from and how much did it cost because it may be a worthy investment for me!
