RED is faster

Mick, and others,,,

Here is a snap of a red interior spotted at Rolfe today. Looks fresh off the transporter. The glare of the window has obviously impeded at least one shot here.

Apple Cooper Our Fleet!

All,

I am pleased to report that our two tone scoop is now a one tone job.

Here are our red cars.

The BRG was an auto MC. Miles different to the S. The auto mirror was interesting.

It is a demo with cream interior, leather seats and a sun roof.

Smile coffee

Hello,

if 'there' is here (canberra!) we will be in that. Have to keep showing off, especially now that the scoop and car are the same colour.

I'm guessing that it might be too late to change your mind

Hey Giles, if you do end up going, I wouldn't mind picking your brains about wiring up my gauges. Know what the thread size for the oil pressure switch is by any chance?

Your a champion. As you’d know, it's a bit tight down there so if you decide that it's too difficult or you can't be bothered, don't worry.

I'd pull it out myself but by the time I've driven out to Mum and Dad's, searched through the paddocks to find the tools that Dad's left lying around pulled it out, measured it, come back into town, brought the T piece and driven back out again, just thought I'd see if you knew off hand. Searching this site has not yielded much useful or consistent info .

If you mean the OEM oil pressure switch near the headers, its 17mm.

Who's on First....

Hello,

Say 10.30am ?

Sounds okay, could be a trick getting parking though???

It's hard to find a good spot isn't it.

Other alternatives could be...

1. Jem Café, Narrabundah Shops
2. Carlo's, Watson Shops
3. Tilley's, Lyneham Shops
4. Beess and Co, Yarralumla Shops
5. Griffith Shops (must be something)
6. Chifley Shops (the cafe there is supposed to be quite good, and close to the MINI dealer!)
7. Filthy Gorgeous, O'Connor Shops
8. Black Pepper, Belconnen

...other suggestions...

???

Chifley shops is about three feet from my girlfriends place, which is where I'll be...that would be sorta convenient ...don't know about he 'close to MINI dealer' though....are we all going to rock into Rolfe and annoy them en masse or something?

10:30 on saturday would leave me with very little time, as I have to go hang around and watch some stupid nags run in circles from midday onwards...

Sunday is more convenient for me, but I can do saturday if it's earlier than 10:30....could go to ***DRUMROLL*** breakfast!....??

Where's a good place for breakfast AND can accomodate some minois'?

You mean if we meet at 10:30am you wouldn't be having breakfast. What, are you some kind of lifestyle hippy guru that gets up really early, like 9am or something.
