Just a suggestion if you do this for money. I'm sure you did a good job but your photos aren't doing the best job of showing it, in fact, in some of the pictures its hard to tell that that is a freshly detailed car. I'd consider getting a better camera or some photography tips to help showcase your work better :thumbs up:

I must have taken 3-4 different shots of the same pic to see what works with that lighting. It seems that a point and shoot wont do the job, I'm not very good with photography. Thank you for your input!

Thank you! It is a neat little car. I'm a taller guy, 6'1 and I fit very comfortably in it, I also really like the whole dash, center console set up. I couldn't comment if it is all the same for the newest Mini's. This was also the supercharged one, the newer ones are turbo.
