Why, 'cause there's no dragon on it??
A reminder that the rest of Britain doesn't want the Welsh?!!

Wouldn't buy it for YOU to like it!!
And anyway, with that spacing, it's clearly a plate for show use only!?! British car - Union Jack!!
Would obviously use the correctly spaced alternative for use on a public highway..... officer!?!

Oh well, no private plate for me!!
Some one with more money wanted it as much as I did!?
Would've been nice, but the pic is as close as I'm getting to it!



Have to spend the money on getting my wheels refurbed and fitted instead...
what a let down that will be for me... or NOT!?!

I've taken my first step into a larger world!
Finally got the old tyres taken off my Cosmics...
even the original factory stickers on the rim are in decent nick!
Although they weren't made for a Mini like I thought they were!!

"The Emperor's New Tailgate"
Had it resprayed in a special paint that only clever people can see!!




Developed a mad misfire on way home aswell...
so more that just a damn good wash needed before POL!!

Couple of little bits done:-

Crusty opening windows swapped for ones made out of metal and finished in gloss black...





And VERY orange indicators.....


.....replaced with much more respectable red versions!!




Plus of course, tailgate is now black, and METROPOWER sticker in rear window. (for those that didn't see it at POL).

Did the 3 sides you can't really see in black...
same as I did on the headlights...
to stop the panel gaps looking huge!?!

Just tones things down a bit, and works well on a black car IMO!?

Bit of plastic welding on one of my other grilles.
Added in an angled side piece to make a 'semi-evo' grille!?

Despite tail-lights going red, there's STILL too much amber on my car!!




Few bits of tweaking and I can swap these around!!

Got the bulb holder bit on back sitting it much closer to camera lens!
The smoked ones are over an inch deep and need cutting down big time!!
