I think they're great cars. My buddy has a Clubman and loves it.

I just can't get past the God-awful Speedo in these cars. It's a poor representation of the original and is only lacking a coin slot and gumball ejector.

Like to see someone put out a nice aftermarket replacement because IMHO this is really a sore spot.

Anyway, nice car... good luck with it!

Cheers!

Great looking Mini!!, but do me a favor.....remove the rear seat to make sure you don't slip up and let someone ride in the "Deathseat." There's no way anyone could survive a rear ender back there 2" from the rear bumper.

hehehe yeah, i do have a rear seat delete, but im not a fan of the look tho
besides, theres no room there for even a toolbox, so i dont think anyone would want to even attempt to sit there.
ill put up some more pics as i detailed it yesterday and removed the checkers from the roof. man, black is beautiful once clean.
the only thing that sucks on these cars is the rear end getting dirty instantly from boxy look.
check this picture out, guy drove it for a month i think he said with no wash, check the sides and check the back. grrr
