Show Us Your Motors!

The previous owner had it done, I have been trying to get replacement Ford badges but in yellow. The place that did sell them had their license revoked by Ford and I haven't been happy with the quality of some eBay ones I've been sent. It's on the todo list and it might not be running Revo software soon ;)

could you not just put OEM badges back on the car? The RS is a great looking car in stock form, some standard badges would make it look a lot fresher.

I can sort of understand the urge to install colour coded badges to an extent, but replacing the OEM badge with a tuners logo seems a bit weird.
its like putting your tyre fitters logos on the center caps of your wheels.
 
Not a fan of the pressed plates Stormster but apart from that looks great :)

Homer love the RS, what size wheels are they? I imagine you have lowered slightly over the standard RS suspension, fills the gap nicely!

After breaking an alloy in a crater of a pothole I decided to get a few things sorted. The car was sent off to Midlands Car Care again for some TLC and today I picked it back up :)


Unfortunately by the time I got home it looked a lot dirtier. Have to love the weather :p

I'm not surprised you broke an alloy, the pot holes round here are stupid!

Car looks good.

If I don't find some replacements soon I will be putting the OEM ones back on but I don't want to give up on my search just yet :p

Thanks, the wheels are 20" BBS CH-Rs, it's lowered on H&R springs.

Thanks, the pothole was just off the M42 (here https://www.google.com/maps/@52.381...4!1s-zRd0DIuaBLhXSmYYy7pDw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656). It managed to flatten the alloy wheel all the way across :(

Take a look at http://gelbadges.com

Not tried them personally but they look to be the same as DMB graphics.

Oh I still stand by that statement. Most enjoyable car ever. Simply amazeballs.

You should test drive one. I think you would enjoy it.

I probably would, I like the GF's regular Cooper and think the only real thing it lacks is more power so I'm sure it's great fun. I'm a fan of the Mini.

Just surprised it's gone so quickly.

When the tyres are warmed up its simply fantastic.

I had planned to keep it a little longer than I had. But plans change. Had to adapt
