So in 1977 I went to the cinema to see Star Wars, driven in a 70s Mini, now I'm off tomorrow with my son to see the new film - should we go in my green Mini!

    Yay, I had a former mini owning tester who replaced the pinch bolt and then adjusted the mixture to meet emissions - another year of Mini madness to come :-)

Bummer - took my daily to the local F1 autocentre and the guy offered me 2 nearly new Yokos for my Mini, the bummer? They were 13 inch and my wheels I are 12s :-(

    I agree with Pingu! I too often drag dust in from the garage. I use the house to store my car parts too :)
