One of the lads that did work experience with use a while ago is in his first year doing Motorsport Engineering at Oxford Brookes. He's got a Mini that he did a load of panel work on at our place but I think it's been put in his parents garage while he's away.

To say Im envious of him would be an understatement. >_<

Unfortunately, or fortunately (can't quite work out which!), I'm far too old to be at Brookes. However, I'm just down the road from the Headington Campus.

Are you planning on coming to PoL this year? If you are, come and join our convoy :-) http://www.theminifo...pril/page__hl__

We're not in Hollow Way, so the purple Mini there isn't ours. However, if you would like to come as a passenger on Cowley Convoy down to PoL, you'd be more than welcome to come with us - you can let me know nearer the time as we will have plenty of seats. Don't worry, you won't have to go in Milly my Maestro, we're also taking Trevor, our 1275GT :-)

Northbrook college for me doing motorsport engineering BSc, two guys on the course have minis ( me and another who is on here actually) but his is in a bit of a sorry state, mines not looking too good either atm if I am honest, but I think 5 people have or had minis on the course.

There is defo positive correlation with motorsport engineering courses and mini owners :P
