I like flame paint jobs but this one has too much realism for me.

I already have dibs on those front brakes. Flame bedded in.

It really was an amazing sight. One doesn't realize how much plastic is in our cars until you see a burned out one. Looks like most of the car is plastic. One smokey fire. No wonder the windows at MAG MINI are jet black with soot.

That's the new "Roasted Marshmellow" colour.


All joking aside, I'm very sad after seeing photos.

Not an engine fire. Left overnight in the showroom with a defective battery changer hooked up.

I am amazed at the amount of wires there are in there. Sad to see a car with such potential gone :( At breakfast next month we should pour a little motor oil on the street in memory of Mini's gone but not forgoten.

Come on over Terry. I'll fix ya up. One on the front, one on the back & one on the roof. Safe from parking lot mishaps & the odd roll over.
