I was surprised that they were about the same price as the leather seats offered by Mini. If the dealer in Denver offered them I would have ordered them. The quality was great.

I think what you saw was that car...it was a special car they were going to do for themselves, but decided to sell it...either that or they were trying to make it a dealer special (i forget which one) but they were offering it in their inventory...unfortunatly i dont think they will do custom upholstery on other cars

Welcome to NAM from Italy!! We're glad to have you aboard. Your car looks great. The wheels are unusual and really stand out. I like you Flickr photos, all of them - pages one thru 4.

Best,

Here are some clickable pictures of my motor. It doesn't look much compared with some of the modded R56's on here, but I love it all the same Saying that though, I'm guessing it does have what is a pretty unique feature on this forum.....a 1.4 litre 95 bhp engine

Ooohh, I like those side repeaters or whatever they're called. If yours is a CooperD, are they D-specific?

Thanks. Yeah, I'd love a Cooper D too, the thought of 50+ mpg and bucket loads of torque is very tempting!

Cheers, my car is a MINI One. I bought my side repeaters off Ebay, I believe they are called Aero Kit Side Repeaters, they aren't specific to any model. I painted them silver in the last group of pictures, which I think makes them look even better than normal
