I know that from previous years! I'm actually going down in my daily, just to make use of the trade stands down there. If I remember rightly they leave around 9ish? I'll be leaving my house around 8.30 just to get there

You will get some sleep, depending on what nutters are camping around you as some do all nighters!

Wasn't fair. They weren't all the same colour in the first test, so they would go for the different one ;) I get your point though, who can resist a Mini?!

Because they ignored the Mini but all went for the BINI afterwards. It would have been interesting to see what would happen if the Mini and BINI were in the same line up though.

Very well produced, doesn't come across as car-nerdy but is primarily factually correct for us buffs!
