Had him for nearly two weeks now so I thought i'd better take young Marvin MINI for a special clean and then a location photoshoot. No expense spared- top of a multi-storey car park in sunny Watford (!)

Still got his aero kit to go on when the dealer can get hold of one.

MCS chrome filler cap going on this weekend in time for the last JCC race at Snetterton. Pix below:

Very nice, although, I learnt something too.

I noticed in shot 3 that they rebuilt stone henge on top of that car park! Very cool. (See reflection).

Simon, WOW WOW WOW, is all I can say, bet you are well chuffed mate!!

Will keep an eye open for you in and around the Herts area

Simon James · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:30 PM

You have the eyes of a hawk Paul

There is indeed a Stonehenge like structure on top of Church car park Watford! Dunno why but it looks good in pix. Full image of it below:

Simon James · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:32 PM

Speedd · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:35 PM

Now there's my next colour combo

Very nice and all the best

Simon James · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:36 PM

Rakey- yep pretty pleased! Aero kit still to come, fitted free after the "missing sunroof episode"
Not that you can see the damn sunroof in any of the pix!!!

Rakey · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:41 PM

Aero kit still to come, oh god, ok, now great looking car is to get even better, damn and blast you

Really pleased for you to get something out of that mess up. Can't wait to see it in the flesh.

Speedd · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:42 PM

Rakey · Oct 14th, 2003, 03:47 PM
