Looks good. Kind of looks like a non CF Racing dynamics version.

I think all MINIs are something to be talked about, even those not running looking for some repair and TLC.

Well that I have to agree with, there is something about minis that I you we can't get away from, I have a $60k bmw that I don't care about as much as my $10k mini...Lol I don't know what got to me, in my younger days when I went to school in England I drove none but the 60's cooper s the one with tank on each side and few TR6 in between and the weekends was spent racing other coopers and just having a good old time, now I am back to my childhood days..Lol
