Yes nice Mini and I haven't seen an Austin Maxi in ages, let alone one that looks mint. You can definitely see the Mini Clubman resemblance too.  |

I say stick with silver, I'm not sure black or gold would work with that lovely blue colour your car is?
What size are you thinking of?
12x5 like they look to be already?

I've had three Maxis in my life-time--all great family and towing cars. Good to see such a fine speciman on the club pages!!

Might need slightly wider arches for 12 x 6? Mind, ours have the deep dish as well so guess the offset makes ours stick out more than normal. Might be fine I thought about white, but as people pointed out to me they require even more cleaning! |

Looks like they did a good job from the pics. Was it expensive? |
