    I didn't think it could be a real MINI unless it's red with a white top.
    :crazy:

    Old coot? MINI? I don't think I understand.

    Welcome. Nice MINI. Is there any colour cooler than Chili Red? No, not really.

    Welcome to MA!

    You're absolutely right. All MINIs are red and white. Anything else is just a mistake.

    Thanks guys...

    ...looking forward to meeting you sometime.

    :crazy:

    Also, I'm going to look around to see if there's a proper thread for this question, but I'm buying some 17" R110 Pace Spoke MINI wheels, and I wondered if Falken ZIEX ZE950 205/45R17 tires will fit without rubbing...?

    Thanks (again!)
