I spotted a GP today---on the Nurburgring.

From 8,000 miles away, it was impossible to read the roof number.

I've posted the other pic in the thread above. We'll have to wait for Alex to get back & let us know if he was getting on the track at 6 pm local time--near a DS MCS & a nice red/gold Elise.

Spotted GP0472 in County Down, Northern Ireland today when I was out for a run. Could do with a clean.

A few miles down the road I was behind a Kit car club with 3 AC Cobra Reps.

Saw my first GP on the road today, heading into Chichester at lunchtime.

They certainly have road presence!

I've just realised that this thread has been running for 10 months now and, apart from the three I sold and two others on MINI Runs, I've never seen one on the road!

See my other post.

Only 1 in 61,181 (approx) cars in the UK is a MINI Cooper S JCW GP

It's pretty rare mate, and you'll see a lot of other cars before you see another one
