    cheers bud, they'll be up for sale as soon as the new wheels arrive. I was gonna go matt black, but went with a gunmetal so they didnt look too lost against the tyres.

    Whoa do you mean the big ugly plastic lumps running down the sides of the doors between the arches is just stuck on with tape??? No clips? if i take it off then there is just paint and no holes? just tape, no clips. allow 3-5 hours for glue removal!

    cheers bud.. yup a wheel change is on its way, may need to speak to your bud dav about repairing rims. trying a local place first who may be able to help, but will pm you otherwise.

    wow! those photos are amazing.. were they taken by a pro? :lol: i felt honoured to be co-pilot to charlys, still wincing about the state of the roads over there though. can't believe how shiny the thing comes up with a quick wash either. 8)

    no offence to the one's above, but i hate cups on a rado. same as ronal turbos etc, good wheels, but not on the rado.

    gaahhh! its not a peugeot engine! the engine was developed using bmw valvetronic technology, but because of the numbers needed to justify production, MINI have sold the majority to peugeot. however, as the valvetronic system is patented, they haven't sold the rights to this to peugeot. this is shown in the fact that the cooper s is pushing 175bhp and the 207gt can only manage 150 from the same unit! :lol: with overboost, 220lb torque and a six speed box maybe it is a close call..

    depending on how new is new.. the cooper s was first launched with 164bhp, this was uprated to 170 bhp late 2004. the john cooper works versions were 200bhp, uprated to 210bhp. in november last year the twin scroll turbo version replaced the old supercharger unit, this kicks out 175bhp. so far, we think the works version will be launched late 2007, however nothings been confirmed yet.. I'm surprised that you havent been able to keep up.. unless its a works version.

    yeah see. your 2p's worth is worth 2p
