I couldn't ignore that. But I guess that's just me. I reckon my mini would kill me if I just ignored it's body too much.

I like it , multi-tasking one piece of cloth!

Do the badges have c-clips holding them on the inside? Or do the just push on and down?

Got a little carried away with the painting and don't know if it's just the extra mm's of paint or if this is the way they are.

Where do you buy the anti rattle rags from cush?

True , but the badly cracked and worn paint on Astro is like the wrinkles on an ancient Pro , a sign of a life of good times :lol:

Your paint job doesn't have that "character" .....

Fair enough Cush, I just have a thing about classic cars being in bad condition. Can't imagine just how much rust is underthere.

My grandpa had a tiny rusy bubble on his Daimler, that pissed me off so much, beautiful car, slowly dying. All fixed now though, enough convincing and now the Daimlers great.

All mini's love to be driven. Mine is no trailer queen, although it has been trailered home twice in the 2 years of driving it. It didn't like it, I didn't like it.
