The car gets the marquee and the humans huddle under brollies! Love it. Proper respect.
Well done (again)

Just got my copy of Mini World, what a cracking read, after following you on the forum now seeing it in there is just fantastic.

I hope my pickup will be as good as yours when I get round to starting it.

Well done ... Ben
