He could go sit up the old Pacific Hwy near Mt White, there's a 2 wheeled customer guaranteed every 30 secs. :lol:
OTOH all the Mini drivers are law abiding. 8)

At last, the bay is painted :) , now lets see if you can pick the colour the rest of the car will be ,(hopefuly by the end of the year).The weather gods smiled this morning, just!, and my mate Wes come over to paint the engine bay, and after about 2 hours the job was done. Wes does most of his work from home but does the occasional mobile job,(mostly the smaller jobs), so if anyone in the Syd metro area needs some painting done just drop me a pm. Anyway enough of the plug :wink: , I am very pleased with the result, much better than I could ever had done and worth the wait , I took some pics as he applied the etch primer, the hyfill and finally the colour.
