Wifey's new mini!
 

So, my wife has been wanting a mini since they came out, but other things always came up. Since she was so cool with me getting the F bomb, I thought I'd share the kindness.
Here's her Mini Cooper S R56 santa got her for X-mas!
god, this thing is fun to drive...

^^piccie no workie

really? I can see it in the thread ok on this end...

Just appear as a question mark to me, try rehosting it..

Yea I cant see it either..

let me know if that worked...

Pic works now, looks nice!

Enjoy it...

It works now! Looks like a racehook at the back, is that from JCW? And I'd try to switch the front fog light glasses to transparent or white, that'd look sweet :)
How does she like it?

Thanks! the hook is the stock one powder-coated yellow. We LOVE the yellow fogs because it goes with the whole story. She wanted me to make it look like a 60's French Monaco rallye car.
After all, since it's technically the wife's, it needed to be quirky and cute for her (and not too quirky and cute for when I drive it...).;)

whoa, wifey drives that mini? like her style! I miss mine, had to give it up cause I wasnt driving her

Ah I see. Cool choice of hers :)
What's the PaulSmith thingy you got? Noticed it in your tiny sig

It's a collaboration between Fashion designer, Paul Smith, and Triumph. Limited to 50 pieces in the world. Some people hate it --you either get it or you don't. Since I'm in the fashion biz, I love it...:D

^^Haha that's awesome! I'm a real sucker for PS stuff, he's a great designer for clothes. Stylish, classic clothes mixed with rad textures, patterns and design. :)

nice! another true fan.
It actually sits on display in my office's conference room in front of the window. I can't bring myself to ride it since it's so rare. All I need is some soccer-mom in her Hummer on her phone running it off the road.

Besides, my Paul Smart keeps my moto-thirst quenched.;)

Hehe, too abd it's so hard to come over some nice collections in Sweden. My brother used to live in London and I always visited the PS shops when I went over there :D
I can understand, it's just a piece of beauty to have around.

Lol, you have a Smart car in PS style too?
