It's only been 24 hours but I feel it can be made more perfect. Today I have been at work doing slight mods/improvements to the car as follows:
1. Exterior improvements. Added a horizontal slat to the front grille and made them closer. Also, the boot light area sticky out bit is narrowed and taller. A yellow number plate is below it because I was stupid and at the time of 1.0 only saw white ones. And I forgot door handles so some nice chrome ones are in the smooth bodyworks place
2. Accelerating. Engine is revised for less torque lower down in the rpm range and this gave a sportier sound which I think is more realistic especially when you have a twin DTM exhaust or similar and the gearing is completely different. shorter gears overall and spaced more to try and recreate the massive difference between 3rd and 4th gears ( if you've driven a Mini you'd know) it's kind of worked but overall the gearing mods help to make the decrease in torque less noticeable
3.Decelerating. Less powerful brakes, doesn't lock up at anything over 50% brakes due to single piston calipers rather then double and the brake pad type has been reduced to 25 from ~30. If these are too weak I can improve
