Yeah it's even got a *rare* cap head screw.

There's a rare cooper fuel tank strap if you have a good look around at the moment (there's no difference between right and left tank straps).

"if yours is different it is broken."

mine are different, and even before they were broken they were different! Is this really what they originally looked like ?
I remember talkin to a mini shop about these new ones, and they thought they were #@^&

Its a great selling line though
:)

Edit ], i can see the tarnishing on this one, so i guess its older

Original early 850 didn't have those- until after the Cooper was released, 850s had a wire door pull. :lol:

I watched that to the death, expecting that bid to be retracted in the final hours. :lol:

The bid remained, the car was sold, but low and behold the car is for sale again?

I just don't get it? :? :lol:
