Winston

Here's Winston!!

MINI Cooper D
British Racing Green Body/Black Roof
Chili Pack
Chrome Interior
Centre Armrest
Chrome Mirror Caps
Clth/Lea Ray Cream White
Darkened Rear Glass
Colour Line Cream White
Anthracite Roof Lining
Interior Trim English Oak
Bi-Xenons
White Indicator Lenses
Sport Button (in a diesel?? )
R99 Anthracite Wheels
TLC, GAP blah blah blah...and a few freebies
Erm, a few other things I've probably forgotten

Things have noticed between Maurice (57 plate) and Winston (08):

Auto-close passenger window on the 08!!
The throw of the xenons has been remarkably improved too.

Leaving him completely bare because I'm not too sure what I'm doing with him yet, JCW kit...

Excuse the not-so-good quality phone pics, I also doubt the dealership polished/waxed the car for me But it's sunny outside so I'm getting out the equipment!

See you all next week at TG!!

Nice Car. But there are a few things I personally wouldn't have.

How much did you get the wheels for?

Wheels were a grand

I hear what you're sayin about the BRG, wasn't too sure when I ordered it but in the flesh, it is seriously one of the best colours. Just wondering why there aren't that many around!!

And the wood trim is wicked too, don't be dissing

Don't!

Having a more unique colour makes your MINI all the more special.

...and more difficult to sell on to the next owner!

I like BRG, but it's been with Mini since day one, and needs a bit of freshening up. (imho)

I own a Liquid Yellow MINI. I know where you're coming from there.

I suspect Nightfire Red will be similar too.

However, someone somewhere will like BRG when he comes to sell. Let's not talk about that now though - he's only just bought the car!

Yeah nice one guys, I'm having second thoughts already...

It's all about buying a car with the colour/spec that you are going to love because you you don't want any regrets!! Got a few plans for this one anyway, just waiting for the three year warranty to run out now

Anyways, you'll all be awe at TG so there!
