ACV, so mine's Truro. Still don't know where it came from though as it's a private import. I think it's from Germany but I would have thought it would have been registered on the other coast if it did. Hmmmm. I would like to know where it's been on its travels. I don't even know if it was made at Longbridge. I think the Belgium factory and at least one other was still open at the time it was made.

Birmingham... and the other mini I had for a few weeks was from my home city, Leeds :teehee: Not bad considering it was born in 1972 and ended up coming back here 35 years later!
