Why not go to the Mini Cooper Register day at Beaulieu next year. Entry to the show includes entry into the museum. Next years show is on June the 9th.

It's possible, but I saw the dent in the roof and the snapped of bonnet. Also, didn't richard lose his arches on the road?
It's been a while since I've seen the special, but it was at least a similar one :)
