Schlurple The Purple! P.s. I'm new here...

[SooperDan]

Hey everyone!
Thought I'd use my MINI as an icebreaker, so here goes.

This is my 2005 MINI Cooper S in Blackeye Purple, which doesn't show too good on the pictures but they're the only pics I have, weirdly.
It's my second new MINI, fourth BMW (of sorts) and eighth car I've owned in my glorious five year driving life. So. here she is...






And my name's Daniel, 22 years young and currently living in the grand old city of Nottingham


Hello to you all, and I'll be sure to be posting lots of things in the near future

Nice Motor Dan! Welcome to PH!

Do you have any pics of your previous cars too?

[BriC175]

Nice! Have a real soft spot for these

[Chunkychucky]

Very nice, looks great with the contrasting roof/wheels Welcome to PH

[Hartge210]

BEP one of my fave colours on the MINI , looking good.

Hasn't the modding bug hit you yet ???

[Downton Mini]

Lovely MINI one of my favourtie colours too

[SooperDan]

Thanks guys! I've got pictures of all of them but I'm at work at the minute so I'll have to post later.

I've got plans for it; currently figuring out a colour scheme. Been meaning to book in to Lohen for a reduced pulley but just haven't got the time at the minute. Also have my eye on some Hartge interior bits from the haven that is German eBay, but I just haven't got round to it...

Annesley Grove?!

[Dave Hedgehog]

excellent colour combo

[anonymous-user]

Pretty nice.
The white wheels make it.

Brilliant colour combo, one of the better looking MINI's I've seen for sure Welcome to PH!

[taylor86]

Very nice, quite fancy one of these, what sort of MPG are you getting??

[Max M4X WW]

Probably my favourite colour for those, really not a fan of the white bits though!

An Aero front grille would look sweet

Just round the corner, yeah!


I mostly drive around town because that's where I live, so I average about 28mpg. On a long drive I get over 40mpg, it's not too bad in all fairness

[PaulG40]

Nice mini! I like the colour combo!

Nothing like coke 'n' hookers on your doorstep

Nice Mini Dan and welcome to PH, give me a wave if you see me in my red monaro.

I think the word you're looking for is 'convenience'.


And I've sure I've seen a red Monaro around so I'll be sure to send a flash your way when I next see you

I'd stick to a wave if I were you, you don't even know him yet

Get a Milltek on it. Poppp popppp BANG Poopp Burrrble.

Still miss mine on overrun

Nice car. The facelifted S always look much better thanks to the revised lights.

Have a look at getting some new wheels as those S-spokes are quite heavy.

Reduced pulley is a worth while investment as aren't they only £120 plus fitting and can release as much as 25bhp?
