From what I have heard all 3 presenters are quite fond of Minis so I doubt any deliberate damage will come to it. Although it probably wont be treated with great respect if its got pallets strapped straight to the roof panel.


James May tries to break Pilkington Structural Glazing by releasing a Mini Cooper :o



that's not a cooper :lol: no chrome grill or white mirrors :lol: i was shouting at the telly when this was on haha i must be sad :lol:

back on topic i hope they dont kill it >_<

From the DVLA information it looks like the car featured in the new filming has been off the road for over a year. Perhaps it was a victim of the scrappage scheme!

The vehicle details for W61 LJF are:
Date of Liability 27 07 2010
Date of First Registration 07 03 2000
Year of Manufacture 2000
Cylinder Capacity (cc) 1275cc
CO2 Emissions Not Available
Fuel Type PETROL
Export Marker N
Vehicle Status Unlicensed
Vehicle Colour MULTI-COLOUR
Vehicle Type Approval Not Available

They'll probably "cue the music" and modify the hell out of it to go swamp racing or something similar :D Like they did with the sports cars in the last christmas special, or in the Bolivian special.

Still be a good watch though :)
