Did you notice the pieces of timber i glued on for the hinges on the doors.

I'm not a Mini expert so i didn't know that they didn't belong but they were on thier one.
Took me ages to add them and sand them down to fit the bumpers.

Mini Cooper S hell on wheels so number plate last 3 digits should be 666 not just 66
Overriders were accessories they later came out with rubber buffered ones for the Clubman
