This is such a nice looking car.  Where did you get the interior trim from Spike?  Particularly, the trims around the doors, I need to get my clubby estate tidied.

Likewise to the above our estate is looking a little bit tired, I think Newton Commercial sell the interior bits for estates.

Looks amazing. Is there more leg room in the back of an estate? the wheel arches are further back, but does the back seat stay in the same place..? (I've never been in an estate  ​ )

You'd be surprised what you can get in the back of a woody.

I transported new bicycles, moved house & witnessed transportation of a calf (young cow).

The car is still in the collection too!

The back seat base lifts forwards and the back drops down so you get the same load area as a van . I'm sure there's plenty of story's of what people got or get up to in the sack of any mini
