Look at all the vans/estate/travellers being raced aswell, along with all them classics :thumbsup:

I love watching videos like this, reminds me why I love the sport as there is such a variety in cars being used. So what if a few minis were used, it makes the ones now more valuable. Whats the difference to that to this ?

Remember it was 1982 and back then there were mini's on the road everywhere you looked. My wife had a T reg pageant blue, 10" wheel, centre speedo mini for a few years in the late eighties and I begged her to replace it for a newer version. She did.. if I only I had the foresight to think how much it could be worth now. lol
