"Big Paws" Mini 1275GT with Video Inside

[cooperluke]

This is a friend of mine car.
It's a modified Mini 1275GT with around 110bhp.
Considering it weights around 650kg, it's very nice!

It has 13x9 and 13x7.5 rims, and some "extras" has you can see on the pictures.

It is known here in Portugal has "Patorras" (Big Paws) because of it's big wheels. :D

they're all new Minis on there, except for the 1275gt. LOL

i still think the 1275 does look pretty ace.



yep, normaly it's the other way, but this friend of mine went to a Spanish meeting of New MINIS.

The funny part is that the only car you really listen the engine is the 1275GT!! :D
