Myself not among them, sadly. I hope to change that is eventually. Spot-On Minis are also out of my reach right now. Stripey probably is, too, but the yellow rally Mini seems more attainable. Both are great little models!

I am fortunite in having owned a classic Mini but when I got the Rolls-Royce back on the road I sold it to someone local to me only to find out he is involved in trips to Italy to re-enact scenes from the classic film...The Italian Job. I knew then my lovely little Mini is in good hands!

I wouldn't be doing anything of that sort. That would mean I'd have to accompany "my" Mini as it journeyed across the Atlantic. Such a trip would probably be a lot of fun, though.

I had one when I was on Jersey (Channel Islands) in 1981. Great car, and even at 6ft 3ins, I never felt cramped in it. Ideal for nipping round the island's roads.

The Pop-Art Mini seems to be a very scarce item. What few I've seen offered for sale carry very high asking prices.

And those of you who share your Mini reminiscences are only making me want one more.
