Glad it worked out Paul

pbraun · Jan 10th, 2004, 07:56 PM

I'll take one in Cobalt Blue, or maybe Shark Blue......wish I knew what those looked like!

MINIALEX · Jan 11th, 2004, 12:50 AM

That looks wicked - the first pic of the cab I actually like!!

ncdave · Jan 11th, 2004, 02:10 AM

Once again, Mini2 comes through in the clutch! Great pix and thanks!

Paul · Jan 11th, 2004, 07:39 AM

I have to agree that I've not been impressed with most shots, but they've mostly been of prototypes, or that computer image I posted a while back that while complete, was just a computer image!

In the flesh I was surprised how good it looked, the only thing I still am not too impressed by was the amount of plastic you can see between the two hoops (see the previous news item on the '05 MINI & Convertible if you've not seen that already).
