sticker was around £30-35
spraying the roof white - £200
and i got the sticker fitted professionally - £25
bit pricey in total, but i think it looks awesome!

mine cost me just under £600.... done a fair bit of welding though and bought a rear sub-frame yesterday
to be fair i'd say in total its gonna have cost me about £1000 (including the cost of the car) that includes the bits i need to finish off for the MOT.....
and fingers crossed i'll be on the mini rally from cystal palace to brighton at the end of the month
beeep beeep!
Another lil question dicky, how have you modded your enginee etc....
K&N air filter?
straight through exhust? etc... .
ive been told that if you do it right the 1Ltr can be almost as quick as the 1275 cooper engine and it dont coast a arm and a leg

got any views mate?
