Jason's NEW CAR *BIG UPDATE 17-1-10 *

[jason11]

Just a wee update, well a bit of a big one !

Some might not be aware but the polo was up forsale and within a week and half someone came to view and put a deposit on the car, without the RM's tho, but today a guy of edition38 came and collected them!

Just waiting for my v5 to come back from taking my private plate of and then the new owner will collect the car , sad times but its time to move on to bigger and better !

I'll stick around

(ps got some bits in for sale section have a nosey)

[jason11]

Now then guys , havent been around for a while since selling the polo and now got a new laptop after old one blowing up, anyway thought id share with you my new motor, took a while to find with being quite rare and being a good example with low miles etc !

After looking around and test driving quite a few cars i set my heart on a mini GP and heres a few pic's-





Already done a few touches -
carbon fibre jcw s-works gear knob
iphone/ipod connection
jcw s-works matts
cargo net in rear

Comments welcome, ill carry on coming on here bringing updates etc

If I'm honest mate, I hate it haha. I don't like minis, and not a fan of the GP styling (are the wheels and bodykit GP styling?)

Fair play though, it can't have been cheap, and must be a lot of fun!

Updates will be nice, keep us in the loop

[jason11]

I wasnt a fan when they first came out to be honest, but the GP's a different league personally, everyone has different opinions and taste
It's a animal to say the least, thinking of getting a mk2 golf as a daily tho

[emma_88]

I sometimes think these look very funky and cool, but other times I just think they're weird. Lol.

Bet it's burnt a massive hole in your pocket.

[shantybeater]

Your gti was lovely, some tastefully modding mate as for the mini I'm really not a fan of them especially the sporty versions as I don't see the point in them, nonetheless I hope you get happy mileage out of it and I'll be interested to see what you can do with it if you plan on modding euro?

[Trottagti]

MASSIVLY JELOUS I WELL WANT ONE,

Nice upgrade there and must off rapped ur wallet abit but yes very nice, me mums got the new mini cooper s and i love that so yeah very nice!

Do these have the front strut brace fitted standard as we had an ac snitzner model mini cooper s and it was awfull like the suspension n braces all around??

How old r you to get this insured then lol??

[jason11]

thanks for ya honest opinions, but i reckon they'd soon change after driving it

Trottagti ,cheers mate, yeah i love it, everything about it is just right, better drive and ride from the gti !
Yeah wasnt that cheap but then again its limited so wont loose much value, few nice touches ive already done , carbon
Im 21 with 4 years no claims , insurance isnt that bad

[Trottagti]

Ah writ yeah i love em and yeah the ride is silly solid i love it!

So whats the damage on the insurance, i dare ya to put it up lol???????????????????????????/

[jason11]

yeah much better than the gti and that was on coilies wonder what this will be like on some kw's !

Its not actually that bad , baring in mind the car and value, me policy holder 21, 4 years no claims with 3 points , and me old man as a named driver costing just over £770

[Trottagti]

Ah ur dads named, im on me own with 1 years no claims due to a f**k up n im 21 with mods for 890quid lol!

But my claim was 2200quid so....................

Na i like these alot but my car is well up n coming, its in the trimmers now so all exiting stuff, what happened to that filter pipe? u still got it?
