hi there, really glad to finally be a mini owner. had mine less than a week. drove an mg zr for the last wee while and the difference is unbelievable! ive got a cooper s and never had such a fast exciting driving experience before. when i was looking into buying a mini i came onto a lot of sites similar to this and nearly every mini owner was languishing praise and detailing how much fun these cars were and now i know why. the grin still hasnt some off my face! i have a cpl quick questions. firstly, is it expensive to get a xenon conversion, someone mentioned getting brighter alternative bulbs? also any tips for cleanin the black plastic sideskirts etc. thanks guys, keep up the good work and keep smiling

Already given my top tip for the plastic, but forgot to say welcome to MINI2. So, "Welcome to MINI2".

Very tidy looking MINI you have too.

Taken this evening and Yesterday.

I do like Electric Blue, not my all time favourite (Indi Blue), but well up there, works well in different lights.

Yes it is expensive....and no there is no real tips. Elbow grease, peanut butter or gloss wipes/back to black regular. They will get worn/chipped quite quick if you do any amount of motorway or out of town driving...but they are only 15-20 mins to fit and cost about £25 from BMW for replacements when they get too worn.
