No not small cooling devices, these..........



Can you guess what the guy based his colour scheme on?

[Jay w]

the purple one is a domino pimlico, a fibreglass body on mini subframes.....

I have a big soft spot for these little beauties, fun nimble and full of character......

if i could find a decent one i would have one as a weekend toy

There was only 5 there but attracting lots of attention.  Imagine 15 Omega's in a line...

One had a 1.8 Mugen Honda crammed under the bonnet, with full roll cage and sticker in the back window that declared "I slow down for Scoobies" 8-)

Nice motors but at 6 foot and 18 stone they don't quite do it for me personally if you see where I'm coming from.

I hate them .......they symbolise everything bad about the British car industry and are the icon to its demise in my eyes.

Bit of a miss conception that, my Dad is 6ft 7 and could fit in a mini easier than alot of modern cars, my 6ft 3 cousin had no problems with his.

Main reason, no center console so plenty of room for legs  

They are also alot safer in a head on crash than you might expect, mainly because the steering wheel moves 'upwards' and 'away' from the driver, obviously its no 5* NCAP vehicle but its alot better than most of the jap poop around the time they were popular

i went from a mini 850 to a carlton 2.0 and drove it the same way

love my creature comforts now, but still miss the thrills at low speeds! oh, and the parking!

size doesnt matter tho' as me and my bro both had matching minis and neither of us have seen under 15 stone for a long time. he's 6' too! i had 6 blokes in my mini once for a cross campus trip! no worries.
