i have been, but not for about 2 years. the minis wernt there then, but im pretty sure that mk1 was at the science museum. its a great place, but its basically the old birmingham science museum, only that was free! and bigger! and it smelt of oil which was great!

Birmingham science museum was awesome !! I've memories and pictures from as early as the late 80s when I was 7/8. Such a shame they shut it.
I went to the think tank last year, around oct/nov and the old blue mini wasn't in a tank then, had my hands all over it with ideas of pinching it !!

The blue MK1 is number 67 off the production line back in '59. Must be worth a pretty penny.
