N3WOB Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Hi Lady & welcome to TSN! There are a few owners on here & I'm sure it wont be long before theyve spotted your post & will shout Dont know about any local mini gatherings but there's a monthly meet in Milton Keynes, Winsor & Essex where quite a few of the vw/audi/bmw & others hook up - good crowd & a giggle. Check out the Meets section for details. Enjoy! RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiniLadyV Posted March 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 My ex wanted me to get the Grey one so he didn't look Gay when driving it!! However, he finished with me this week, so Im begining to wonder.. I was going to have the JCW kit fitted, but I dont want to go too fast or have that much power there.. I had a huge accident in December in my 206CC and Im still a little scared at the moment. This is the baby I might be getting... Thanks for all the welcomes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopsta Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Nice... anything on top of the roof ? I think the light colours suit the new mini's really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooby_simon Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Welcome to TSN, Nice Car, looks fantastic.... I have always said I'll have another Mini one day (might have to be an original Cooper when it happens which will be many years and £ buy then.....) But its going to have to wait a while..." kids + mini = I'm Herts based but don't get out to meets, but if you see a Classic Green Scooby P***PGO give me a wave.... Simon.

MiniLadyV Posted March 6, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Hopefully, Fingers crossed that baby will be mine!!!! Nothing on the roof, just plain white! A mate of mine said he can do the wheels white for me for £140!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopsta Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 White wheels Good luck anyhow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS4_Barry Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 White wheels look the biz but do show the dirt pretty easily.... my first mini had white ones...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted March 8, 2004 Report Share Posted March 8, 2004 Hi - welcoem to TSN. I'd recommend having the wheels powder coated if that is what your mate is goign to do - they seem to wear very well - mine were done previously by a company in Milton Keynes for about £200 so the £140 is a good price. Blue and White I think are the best colours for the mini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulboy Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 SNAP!! My wifes just sold a 206GTI and bought a Cooper. The only reason we didnt get one before is cos she thought they were too popular. Fantastic little cars. It may also help you get your confidence back after the crash (been there - not fun) I drive hers occasionally and do not feel like 'I am the only gay in the village' Hope you get it, like it ....and welcome.

snez22 Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 That blue mini above with the scots flag on the roof is ace. Blue with white 17inch wheels looks ace. Minis are ace gay or not who cares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
