Well im driving home from school today and i spot a mini wheel in the hard refuge of house near me!

So i pulled over, walked back knocked on the door nobody was home to ask if I could take it, as I was walking back down their driveway a car pulls up and the bloke curiously asks what i was doing on his property.

after some quick talking and explaning on my behalf. he goes inside and comes back with a yokohama shop sign thing "that i might be interested in". So yeah it has a Red mk2 Cooper s with mambas and nice scenery in the background. He said he was going to put that out too!

He gave me the steelie aswell!

I will get some pics up later of the sign as it is quite big! The steelie looks like any old rusty steelie :P

Best drive home from school i have ever had :D

Matt
