Yeah I know but I haven't touched it, that's the way it was made. Maybe someone had a hangover at the Zetland factory when they drilled the holes. I've gotton used to it and it doesn't really bother me. People still ask me wether it's a Cooper S.

I used to get that sooo much when I jsut had Morris on the front...I even had "is that a cooper?" "nah it's not" "So it's not a mini?" "yes it's a mini just not a cooper." "Oh...." and once "Is that a cooper s?" "nah mate, got an S engine tho. "Oh so it is a cooper s then." "no jsut the engine" "but doesn't that make it a cooper s?" So I put on cooper S badges and haven't been bothered since! Plus mjy dad bought me them for my bday!

nah, everyone does it, theres more cooper S types than others around..

Quite true, it's a tribute to the original!

Just like putting GT badges on a clubby S. Spaceboy.. And my dad is doing that soon too!

IMO more chrome the better, I'd buy more S's and have triple S But they cost too much...

yeah i guess they do...

meh, i figure some GT had to die to give up its bigblock engine and 7.5's for my mini

My engine was out of a cooper s, MiniKings Cooper S to be exact, and there business burnt down killing there S but they had there engine out getting rebuilt. So I bought it! Yeah! Something good came out of something bad, just wish I could have bought the whole car but they loved so I wouldn't got nothing...
