It would be nice to have a thread of JUST convertible owners.

It doesn't matter if it's Cooper or Cooper S


It would also be nice to see any mods done to your convertible
Inside/Outside/Engine/Bling
A brief description would help too..


Pictures are Imperative,


thanks everyone
let the fun beggin

regards,
Charles

 

Give it up for the Convertibles and cabrio, whatever your term.
They have tried this before but nothing came from it.
And how much bling is a factor, unless your like the blacked out look?


It won't be long till the top can be down. Unless you live in a warm climate like SoCal or Florida.

Here's where I live

I guess the convertible is a must,

anyone with pictures?

Charles

 

Any excuse to post pics of my car in another thread!

Most major details are in the sig... Except details like tint and painted calipers ;-)

 

Here's my MCSC. One of the pics is last winter. Haven't had much open motoring in the last few months. I can't wait till it gets warm again.

List of Mods:
Aux input
Infinity Basslink
White boot stripes
shorty antenna
Ro_ja 17" LT5's in white (on order)

 

Here's a pic of Murray, taken last weekend:

Awesome pics everyone


Thanks for taking the time mmatarella, Meg and am0eba


1. mmatarella: I though you couldn't do Solo One with a Cabrio
What are the requirements?
Don't you need to have a Roll Bar?
Nice Looking Cabrio

2. Meg: I can't bear looking at picture #2
I enter the car thru the back door to my room
until stops snowing ( )
I see that you have the boot stripes like me
I love black (it was my second option)

3. am0eba: Are those rims 16"?
They look terrific
Never seen a Yellow Cabrio S before locally
love driving? (kool)


Here are a few of mine
Just got it 4 months ago and
have done very little to it.
but,
the next thing I will do to is the Aero Kit,
the Webb Stage 2 Kit plus the R90's

Any comments on what are you doing to yours next?

Thanks again
regards,
Charles

 

Here in Northern California we've had a warm spell this week, so there were many lunchtime top-down motors enjoyed.

Speaking of bling, I am crazy for the faux-wood veneer dash. I went back to my "You-i-fication" book and looked at options. Don't ask me why, I think it would look great in my BRG/GR with a lovely wooden shifter ****.

Check out this sample at Ebay (where there are several NICE cabrios on the off-season block): http://tinyurl.com/74nyk.

What do you think?
Cheers!

am0eba, please tell where you got that curve sticker on the back of Murray.



"Sam" said she wants one on her rump.

 

Rev. Limiter, check your PMs.

Mastersonics, yeah those wheels are 16"x7" Konig "Holes" in graphite. I got them to replace the 17" 5-spoke "Bullet" wheels from MINI because the uneven freeway slabs here in Southern California were too rough on my passengers!

Kewl. A Cabrio thread.
Mods are in sig.

 

mmatarella,
Those Wet Okole seats look great. How do you like them? I'd love to get some if they can get a close match to LY.

 

GyroJ,

I already worshipped Little Nellie's fab custom stripes in the other thread, but tell me about your glovebox organizer with the drawer...pics?

Beautiful car that has taken inspiration from one of the greatest Bond flix...

 

Here's mine. I already posted this in the jet black thread. I see that jet black cabrio's are pretty popular.

 

Here's a link to another thread where I posted the drawer.

Very cool, thanks for the link!

 

They look great

 

Here is Egguinn. He is about to get some new shoes in a week, or two.

 

Whoa!

Awesome!
I though that there were not so many Cabrios around here!


beautiful, a work of art
just love the look of the cabrios




Rev Limiter: That was the exact combination that I was going to get
if I ended up getting the black S
Looks sick!



keep those pictures coming......................



Can anyone help and tell me how to add a signature?
pardon my ignorance

regards,
Charles

 

Pteri

I think that would look very nice
especially with the color of your car



Oh man
I wish I had more $$$ so I could buy at least 3 more.
I just can't get enough of them

AM I SICK?,
or this is how pretty much everyone feels about there Cabrios?


regards,
Charles

 

Just put in new taillights,what do you think?

 

Byron
very nice mods

would love to see your engine


are those GS-D3 tires?
how you like the Milltek exhaust?

I will be doing the Milltek header and exhaust

thanks,
Charles

 

Pardon my ignorance but

Can anyone help and tell me how to add a permanent signature?

regards,
Charles

 

Thanks. Probably right re: the roll bar. I was on a track day driving school though and it wasn't required for that. If I progressed into their racng program I'd need a approved roll bar.

For a sig... You type in it in your profile under signature. If you're talking about the grahic ones, after you create the graphic in you fav editor you save it to the web somewhere. Can be your gallery here. Then in your sig editing thingie here on NAM you click the insert picture icon and enter the complete URL to the pic.

 

The above response should help. FYI, click on 'quick links'. There will be an option to edit your signature there.
