That's really spooky...cos my other half bought a Cooper only a couple of weeks ago. Red with White roof and a bit older. Glad you got the bonnet stripes...I've been trying to persuade otehr half to have them put on.

A red MINI Cooper...to match my Misano RS4!
Reckon it needs white bonnet stripes.
What about chequers on the mirrors?

Not been allowed to drive it yet, the missus is being very over protective. She still expects me to wash and polish it every weekend.
Oh, and its only a ONE, just got loads of cooper and S goodies.
Only 3.5k on the clock as well.

It must say that in the owners manual, my wife is exactly the same with hers. Also had the cheek to say our cars were the same colour, her cooper is silver and mine is Avus. Women honestly

You may have a point Dippy, but they are great fun. Almost a big smile on my face as with the S4, just in a different way.

My wife has a grey metalic Cooper S convertable, and had pink glitter viper stripes, and a pink union jack on the wing mirror , hence
i get very strange looks when I'm out in the car!!!
Love driving it though, great fun.

Seems like all audi owners have someone in the family with a mini!
Do you think this is a mini one or a cooper? (my brothers)

A mini one, would be an educated guess, but it does look like a cooper

What do you base your guess on, anything imparticular?
