charlie_kmb Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Hi All,I bought Oscar from Ryan Noon in April. I'm sure plenty of you know of Oscar . Since I got him, I have done a few bits and bobs to him, but not a lot as money is tight at the mo, but i have big plans for him, so watch this place!! This is him when i got him -This is him now (not a lot of difference, flowers are on though) -These are his new dust caps -Flower vinyls -New stereo from the boyfriend! -Clean Osc -Flowers on his parcel shelf - At his first meet with me at Stoney Cove - In a field lol - At the All Dubs Mega Meet with his best friend Rowdy (Boyfriend's Car) - And out shopping in the Highcross, Leicester -Recently my boyfriend has fixed engine problems for me; new drive belt, sorted out the gear selectors as they were very loose, rear shocks were a bit loose so tightened them, new exhaust clamp as the old one got ripped off from speed bumps and fixed the temp sensor as it wasn't working. Next is new coil overs and new clutch...... I have big plans for his interior next and also a wheel change!!! Any ideas/comments are welcome and much appreciated Thank you for looking Charlie xx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie_kmb Posted August 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2012 Hey all,Just a quick update about Osc . He has had some new speakers installed, by the lovely boyfriend, so I can finally listen to my music in a much better quality! Really please now, so made a new parcel shelf as the old one was too weak for the speakers. Also just a few pics I took of him down at the school at night More suede-ing will be happening and new clutch has been ordered!!! Comments welcome (and ideas too please )These are my mums new wheels for her classic mini, love them!!! xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
