Another of Enzo Ferrari and his Mini:

Don't you just hate those $%^&*£ Italians, they even look cool getting out of a mini. When I get out of mine it's like..

Grunt, ooff, strain, roll to the right, and finally catch my foot in the seat belt which didn't recoil properly!!!

Perhaps it maybe that Enzo hadn't fallen foul of the pie & pint diet

Nope, i'm stick thin and short (but not Italian) and still look like a twit getting out of a mini, especially from the back seats

It was beaten by 5OMAR in 1974, the bill from Wood & Pickett landed on a hefty 70000 D marks.

You could buy a Lamborghini for that kind of money, or several Porsche,s

James Garner is shown here with his ’66 Morris Cooper S, a left-hand-drive (LHD) model. This pic, taken in 1966, shows Garner and his Mini.
Of course, we wouldn’t want to drive just any old Cooper S, would we?
His Mini has a custom two-tone blue paint job, Webasto full pull-back sunroof, chromed external door hinges, flip-top alloy fuel filler, chrome exhaust tip and alloy wheels with chrome lug nuts and white-lettered Goodyears.
Garner’s rise to stardom began with the 1963 movie, “The Great Escape.”
