S&CLC - What brand are the wheels on your car and what size are they? What size tires do you have? Thank you very much for the info.

Ahh, nice! I'm thinking about getting a tune and camshaft from RMW in the future.

dannyhavok: thanks very much for the compliments. the head/tail light rings and boot handle are baked enamel paint. (no plastidip on the MINI whatsoever.) take care.

Nice, but it's not a Cooper, it's a Cooper S.

Here's an updated photo of my Winnie. She has now won twice in her category at car shows, and I do show her with the eyeshades.

Here she is without the eyeshades. She is wearing a magnetic badge from MTTS, which is only on her bonnet when she is showing off. She is the opposite of the 'Stealth' look... bright and colorful, with 23 Union Jack flags; grill badges; magnetic badges; window decals; and aftermarket seat covers. Almost every day, someone comments or gives us a thumbs up. A cheerful, sweet car that I adore driving, showing, and owning.
