.....and what a car! So much power in any gear at any speed. You can be so lazy compared to in my Cooper which you had to wring the neck of.

Been waiting nearly three years for one and when I saw this PW one I knew it was what I was looking for!

For those eagle eyed people yes it is Villa Minis old car and I must say a big thankyou to Laura and Dave for a painless purchase! Just a pity I had to pick it up from Newcastle

Off for another spin and suppose to the petrol station.... again
