Cooper-D I guess, that redline is a give away. That would explain the UK spec licence plates and the tax disc. How do you like your D? I'd like to try one of those.

Interesting fact about that car: it has the 2nd worst gas mileage of any car in the world (9mpg). Info courtesy of Road & Track Magazine.

Good times... at the gas station!

OK, can't resist posting this one. Came around the corner one day at the airport to see this. Talk about polar opposites in fuel economy! 2 gallons per hour vs. 195 gallons per hour.

havnt posted any updated pics of my ride here recently (in the past 6 months or so i think haha) but here ya go

as far as i can remember, the last time i posted here was with my enkei rims in june or so but i may be wrong. if thats the case i dont have any pics of those rims with me (im at school in a lab on one of the computers) but heres what i have hosted.

i have added a baseline MCS bumper (with PDC even tho my car isnt PDC equipped), a sub/amp (MA Audio 10 inch comp woofer pushed by a 1000 watt mono block MA Audio comp amp), painted my crown spokes "low gloss black", red beltline (courtesy of Lyle from VS at MOTD 08), and a bunch of other exterior stuff including the stripes.

enough talking...on to the pics!

It's not the OEM vinyl, they're just 12" squares that I cut out and applied.
