New car....

Long story condensed... I had a gorgeous Trophy Yellow TF and spotted an equally gorgeous R8 coupe Tomcat so sold the TF and regretted it the moment it drove away! Ran the Tomcat and missed convertible life so sold the R8 coupe back to the previous owner 7 years later. Original TF not for sale so bought a different Trophy Yellow TF. It arrived and I hated it, didn’t even drive it and put it back up for sale and sold it on. Then lock down happened so new car purchase put on hold. Started looking again a few months ago and original TF still not for sale and the realisation that the current owner loves it as much as I did which is cool. Decided to move on from TF’s and today collected my Interchange yellow ( it had to be really ) Mini Cooper convertible. Fitted with the rare Aero pack and looking stunning........ First job was to replace the wing repeaters with standard items.
