Jeffrey Pangs car right? Such a cool, understated build. Love it! Always liked that set.

One day my car will have power to match the looks.....

Managed to get a couple wee niggles sorted out this weekend. Raised the front a touch so its not riding on the bump stops. Looks worse but hopefully after a short run will settle a bit. Seems veeeery high at the moment so may need down a little touch again.

When I was away to leave after getting pics taken by Natalie, the boot wouldnt close. Thankfully her boyfriend Greg had a screwdriver on him so whipped out a speaker to force it closed from the inside. Problem was the catch. It closed but didnt close fully so kept popping open. Quick mod to the catch (ake the mounting holes larger for some adjustability) and it sorted the issue. Before and after.....



I also just got an email saying I have been accepted for a hanger space at Cleanfest, which is being held at Fife Airport this summer. Think Players Show but easy to travel to :lol:



Fairly chuffed as there arent many hanger spaces on offer and I guess a lot will go to super clean VAG scene cars, so goodness knows how a wee shiny Mini will compete with them! Should be a good show though!

Some more pics, this time from a friends girlfriend (Natalie Anderson Photography if you want to check out her work) taken at the Bennachie Centre. Some great work as expected!

Thanks man! Rear needs to come down a touch to be perfect and still useable.


So paint match.....(unedited photo straight from my phone)



Old door is the colour they mixed for the original repsray, car is now the correct shade. Shocking difference but its a nicer colour now in my opinion. Much deeper shine too!

Side profile looks great. Huge amount of work but it's paid off for sure.

Not a chance! Studless jeans, fine polish when home. Sorted! You will indeed

Photoshoot complete! Met up with Chris (photographer) and Charlotte (model) at Cove Bay. Deserted and overcast but just what the brand were after. Brand's called 'Shack Clothing' and they hand design and produce their products from their base in Germany.

Heres a few shots that I took whilst Chris and Charlotte were earning their keep.










Very nice Im sure you will agree and a few of the car on its own once we had the shots we needed.








Was a great chance to get some decent shots after the latest respray. Driving back home via Union Street on a busy saturday was ace fun. Lots of smiles and pointing. Got surrounded by a group of 10-15 Japanese tourists all wanting a photo with it at a set of lights. Felt bad when I had to move off! All part of the fun of driving the Mini

Finally got round to drilling my rear show plate to fit over the LED bolts, rather than plonking it on the deck.





All ready for its fashion photo shoot tomorrow morning

Glad to see it back on the road! Props to the guy who does your paint work as well, he does an awesome job

Thanks! He is a talented guy, it must be said.

Good to see this back on the road, Andy. looking forward to seeing it at Cars and Coffee next month

Should be good! Hopefully get decent weather for it

Awesome build mate,that colour is gorgeous. I love how there is a growing passion for stance in the mini scene.
I'm sure you're familiar with the thread on TMF but just in case you missed it then please post some more pictures of your awesome mini here

Will do when I get some fresh ones. Got a fair amount in there anyway but it doesnt have much stance at the moment........

Will see you at IMM if you are going
