Very similar indeed!

Great pics!
At that autocross event I just happened to be the sole MINI.

Even the P drivers were envious.

Gosh I love Checkmates! Everyones is looking amazing!

Heres a pic of the Checkmate at the London motorshow! Its gorgeous!

eleanor.shepherd · Aug 28th, 2006, 11:14 AM

quick question.....
if the bonnet stripes are added is the intercooler scoop painted or is it a transfer?

Beastmaster · Aug 28th, 2006, 07:31 PM

The scoop is painted.

eleanor.shepherd · Aug 29th, 2006, 12:25 PM

Thanks beastmaster

So if the stripes are added afterwards presumably the scoop needs to be changed or repainted??

I'm in the process of purchasing from a dealer and at the moment there are no bonnet stripes. He has said that he will add them but just want to make sure that the right thing happens to the scoop too. Don't want to end up with stripes and a blue scoop.....

Beastmaster · Aug 29th, 2006, 06:47 PM

yes if he adds the stripes he should change the scoop to a silver painted scoop

eleanor.shepherd · Aug 30th, 2006, 02:27 PM

Thanks again.

Well it's all sorted - arrives on Friday.

Just how excited.....???

rhardaker · Sep 3rd, 2006, 09:24 PM

Well......I've gone and done it....bought today....hopefully collecting later this week...how excited am I?

MarkW19 · Sep 3rd, 2006, 09:28 PM

Congrats mate!!
