Very good point Martin, there aren't many old minis around, probably down to poor BL quality!

76 quadrillion! Is that 304 million, then?:P

Don't understand why people rave about minis, don't understand why people rave about beetles! But then, they probably don't understand my obsession with my car!!:dude:

Yep, Russ. On the 2CV Sahara, as the rear engine took the place of the fuel tank, there were holes in both the front doorsfor the fuel caps as the fuel tank went all the way across the car and formed the base of the front seat !

But, jeez, couldn't the car just climb mountains and in our recent snow the bicycle thin 2CV tyres could go places that our low profile ones couldn't dream of !!


And put me down as a Stag fan and a Mini fan - but for entirely different reasons. No, you wouldn't buy a Mini for reliability, but is that what webuyStags for ?
