is that the indicator at the top of the B piller?



It was George Harrison's not John Lennon's - John is in the passenger seat. It was a Radford Mini, as was Steve McQueen's.

If he were in the driver's seat, he'd be doing a good job of driving hanging out of the window like that looking the wrong way!

Spoke to one of my neighbours a couple of days ago and he told me his mate bought the first original prototype mini ever built, he thinks he still own,s it, and it,s displayed in a motor museum down south.
I know it,s nothing to do with famous folk owning a mini but thought i would just mention it.
If anybody can shed any light on this i would love to know more,my neighbour said he would also make enquiries.

Another minor celeb to own a mini is Michelle Collins (soap actress), my mate Alan has a signed pic from when she did page 3 thanking him for looking after her mini called Teddy.

And don't forget the lovely Twiggy (Lesley Hornby) who has owned more than one.
Also Britt Ekland and Marianne Faithful (Singer, actress and one of Mick Jaggers girlfriends)
I believe Mike Nesmith of The Monkees also had a Radford version of the Cooper 'S'.
