    That has a real look to it, very professional 😀

    How long did it take to apply that? And what type of vinyl (assuming it is vinyl) did you use? And being the cheeky s*d that I am, how much would you charge for that kind of job?

    Cheers, Dewi

    It took 5 hours for 2 people taking their time, we used macfeet vinyl for the white and mactac 9800 for the red.

    If memory serves it was around the £600 – £800 ish mark.

    It took me nearly that long for the picture to download, try and keep photos to no larger than 650 dpi, helps us poor buggers in the sticks without broadband. Nice looking job, did you remove all the bits and bobs first, wipers, badges etc ?

    As Steve said: Took a little time to download

    But nice to see your stuff

    Nice tidy Job, dont think we would have got that kind of money round here. While we are on the subject of minis, did this one for a customer so he could race it at knockhill and use it round the streets, its all vinyl.

    Not that bad Steve, and at least yours IS a Mini, not a German Usurper!

    Austin Mini 7 indeed 👿

    Nice job Martin
    Pity about all those bricks that have been thrown at it
    Is it a rough area where you are? 😆 😆

    Either that Mini is really small, or Steve Thurlow is a giant!! 🙄

    I quite like that though, why it reminds me of Micheal Cane is beyond me? 😕

    Martin, nice job, was that mini specially modified for racing?

    Cheers, Dewi

    Very niceeeeeeeeeeee
    2 questions was it left on or removed once promotion had finished and secondly was the design created by having the union jack the size of the mini and then using the required parts or was it designed piece by piece

    John, the bricks are not from around here, bricks that new looking would get nicked round here !!

    Dewi, it is race prepared but street legal so dont know what class that makes it. Fitted with full roll cage, 6 point belts, fuel & electric cut off etc.

    the vinyl’s on the mini are still on it. We see it driving around rainham (kent) from time to time. Regarding the design a bit of both but also using someone downloaded pictures from the film.

    The vinyl’s on the jag were only left on for 6 months.
