'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | OrangeManDan - 24/2/2013 9:45 PM Yeah, but without the flag bit. Why, 'cause there's no dragon on it?? A reminder that the rest of Britain doesn't want the Welsh?!! | ||

Border Crosser Posts: 3232 Location: Carmarthenshire, Wales | Nope, because I don't like it like that | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | OrangeManDan - 24/2/2013 10:07 PM Nope, because I don't like it like that 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!?! | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | 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!?! 1-2-3-4-5 | ||

Why not get A12 ICK instead? Suit the driver a little moreĀ | |||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | 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!! | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | "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!! | ||

ADMIN Posts: 2366 Location: Chesterfield ish kinda sort of | Marv_666 - 11/4/2013 3:09 AM "The Emperor's New Tailgate" Had it resprayed in a special paint that only clever people can see!! That paint work on the tailgate is just stunning | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | 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). | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | 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!? | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | Bit of plastic welding on one of my other grilles. Added in an angled side piece to make a 'semi-evo' grille!? | ||

'88 MG METRO 1300 Posts: 1117 Location: Dudley, Midlands | Despite tail-lights going red, there's STILL too much amber on my car!! Few bits of tweaking and I can swap these around!! | ||
