And thanks for the great pic of our MINIs homeland. Between the fog, the license plate, and the architecture, makes me feel like I'm back in Stamford.

Now, don't tell me you had that pic taken on a trip to France.
Thanks!

Those pictures were taken in Nottingham... not a million miles away from Stamford!

Here is one more pic, this time down by the White Cliffs of Dover....

Nice pic ! What a sight, when you come across the English Channel and first see the cliffs.

Bringing back good memories, Serby.

For those not on the Boheme here are my pics.





Does it count against your 10 percent if no one is in the car when the top is up?

You can never see enough pictures of a HO Mini, so..


On the way to the Dragon in July 2005 (we were just married and that was one of our honeymoon destinations)


The day we brought it home... (I wish it still looked this clean)

I'm going to have to ask Jay how many curse words he uses when he polishes and waxes Cecilia.

Here is my Cool Blue baby, soon to have Minilites, Cocomats and checkered mirror caps after this winter. Sorry about the thumbnails, I don't know how to post full sized pics.

here's a couple of our new silver hottie..we haven't named her yet...



top up



top down.

she's an 06 mcsc, pretty much loaded up. about hte only things she doesn't have are the xenons, navi (which i don't like how it looks in the dash anyway), power seats and front/rear fog lights. only aftermarket mod is exhaust, but i couldn't tell you which kind. and she's a 6spd!! yeah, she's fun!!


wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

ty...the wife and son has just named her MoonStar. she's named after a necklace the boy bought to hang in the car. we are liking her more and more everyday. it's a car the wifey has wanted since they came stateside. my 04 silverado sacrificed it's life with us for MoonStar, my fault for taking her with me on a routine oil change, lol. (no regrets however, it's a friggin blast to drive!!)


now to her some new kicks and she'll be set for awhile.


wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

only aftermarket mod is exhaust,
Well, the painted arches on an aerokit are not standard by any means. (plus color matched aero grill surround) . . . and it seems to sit low (although that may just be angle of the photo) -- I wouldn't be surprised if there are some after-market springs on there.
My guess is you'll find some other non-OEM stuff. . . painted arches aren't usually the first mod. and if you have exhaust, the previous owner may very well have put in a reduction pulley.
