It's Clubpersons.

sounds like you had a blast. what a hoot. There's a million competitions out there and you never find out who wins them. Its great to actually hear from one. well done.

BTW Do you think if I had filled in my entry and said I want to meet the pack of useless moron that screwed my heap of pooh together, and shake his hand, do you think I would have won?

I love Warsaw. Where else can you hug a pole?

If you have any information, any information at all, please contact me as I'm writing an encyclopaedia.

John's pretty much been at that factory most of his working life and you can see he is very proud to be a part of the place.

Thanks, it was very much the VIP treatment for me. Even the weather was great for us most of the time we were there.

Would have loved to have a run but at the time was unsure how long i was gonna be up Oxford way for. I ended up having the car for the entire weekend and headed up Stratford way on Sunday. Saturday arvo i met up with some friends of a friend in a village called Napton who live in a house built in 1392! Thats 400 odd years before Australia was founded!!!
Yep, they would not allow me to take any pics of Clubman at all!
The usual cost is a 7pound donation to the local hospital.

YES, the politically correct title!Haha

As for your entry, that is the reason i never won a trip to the Ssangyong factory!!

At the factory though, I never did get to see the "Baby Rattle" that gets installed behind every MINI dashboard!
