The Pirate is worth it!

Yesterday morning I set off on a 2-hour journey in the freezing cold and snow to see Phil. It was well worth it! Phil is a genuinely nice bloke and he treats your car as if it was his own car. His attention to detail and patience is quite amazing.

He ended up spending over four hours fitting stripes to my car. I am absolutely delighted with his efforts and his work has transformed my JCW. It really looks the part now. I will take some pictures when i've washed it as it's filthy at the moment (following the long drive back).

A big thank you to you, Phil. You're a top bloke and a gentleman. You're a credit to the MINI community and all of the hundreds of recommendations for you that i've read on MINI2 are well deserved.

Cheers,

Roma

Nice post Roma, he is indeed a legend, look forward to seeing your pics.

& I'll be making another 250 odd mile round trip to see Phil next week, wouldn't trust anyone else with my MINI

Cheers

John
