Not exactly a painting Stan, it's the bottom of the Christmas Tree that was in O'Connell St. last year.

Really nice looking mini and tastefully modified,was it a ladies touch or did the "artist" have a hand in it too.BTW nice picture on Carlingford pier,I was thinking of do a run later in the year out towards Colley and take ye on a few interesting back roads more suited to a car of mini proportions.
Real Clubmans have a square nose.Seriously.

I like to think so
I had a fair idea of what I wanted to do once i got her home, spent ages cleaning and hoovering til I sorted what would suit her. Now that I think of it, it was her anniversary the other week - Great Friday.
I think the sprayed in arches and wavey grille make it. My previous Cooper was a late Sportspack so it had all the bits and pieces already done.
I'd quite fancy a light tan leather interior and pepper pot wheels but thats wishful thinking.
Thanks for all the nods of appreciation
