Wet seat belt!

Washed GBMINI again today … the metallic Indi Blue looks great when clean (not that often round here till the winter grit clears out).
Ripped the cooperflag off so my MINI is back to white roof now … a couple of marks in the paintwork where the installers cut the flag to size; I also had a wet seat belt after rain recently – hoping that the roof seal was not damaged by the flag installers.
I plan to have a Union Jack painted on the roof soon – they will also be able to repair any paint damage from the cooperflag debacle.

GBMINIs first wash

With the weather sunny and above freezing yesterday, I gave my MINI its first proper wash (no wax – still too cold for that).
It looks so much better with the dirt & grit removed … up till I drove into town for lunch, and messed it all up again!


I also put the “John Cooper” signature decals on the bonnet stripes – a little more character 🙂
Still convinced that the Union Jack will have to come off and be replaced … there has been no response from cooperflags so far!

GBMINIs first snow

Well, I don’t need to worry about the look of my Union Jack flag today 🙂

The new MCS handled just as well as I remember the old MC handling; the extra power did not seem to give me many problems. Only thing was I had to turn off DSC to reverse onto the drive – before that DSC stalled the engine on two attempts. Very safe feeling on the highway …
