George Harrison's psychedelic Radford Cooper S (or any other genuine Radford really)... for me it's the ultimate '60s Mini. Not everyone's cup of tea but I love it...

Would love to build a replica of it one day.

Here comes a whole thread full of 'mine' from the masters of stating the bleeding obvious, of course you like your own cars, pick one you don't own :-)

I'd like a Radford too :-)

My Nan's (God rest her soul) blue sprite. Loved it as a kid, would sit in it and pretend to drive it.

It's that very Mini that got me into them!

An 1100 special in silver.

Every time I see one I want it. Absolutely stunning little cars?

Anyone selling one?

I'm 21 so at the moment my favourite look currently is low, wide miglia carbon fibre arches, stripped and made lighter, nice wheels, decent running engine, roll cage  bucket seats and all the other poser tat you can stick in a mini. Thats what the plan is on my build so I can say I've built my perfect mini.

 

Years down the line I'll probably turn old and senile and moan at people doing what I'm doing to mine and prefer the original standard look. Its the way of life isn't it?  :lol:
