Where is IMM2007 being held? I didn't make it to Spain so don't know
Since COO is still in refit it might not make it to Poland!
I recall owners of Herbie VW Beetles call the nw ones "Big Golfs" ;)
It is a shame the Mini heritage of the 1950s -1990s didn't make it over the pond as the whole slanging match would be quite calm now.... for a modern 21st century car it isn't bad and it has some of Rover Minis saving graces, occasional unpredicatble mechanical failure and a history of recalls, however to fix a 1975 mini you neede to be a blacksmith , to fix a 2005 one you need to be a Microsoft Certified Engineer ;)
No noe can deny the Mini history has continued into the 2000's with a unique car but at the same time the owners of the new one can't deny the legacy ofthe old car made it the business proposition the BMW asset strippers wanted....
Rover parts are still plentiful having been takenover by Caterpillar
