Hold down the button on the top left of the speedo to brighten up the dash lights. Sqeaky seat is only fixed by opening it and greasing the springs, or by turning up the radio. 17" tires, non runflat, currently run around 350 Euro for a set of 4.

Beautiful looking car Skapegoat!
The Viper Stripe really is beautiful, and really adds to your car.

Hope you're still enjoying the MINI fun!
Will you be heading to a few club events?

It must only be 11 months to the next MTI??????

Thanks for all the comments!
I love the car and havent stopped smiling since i got her!
I took the traction control off and let her rip in the wet, the wheels didnt stop spinning until the middle of third gear!!! 8O

Here is where i got the stripes but i had to buy two sets to do the fulll car.
So 95e delivered.
