Weren't they made out of fibreglass somewhere in South America as well?
Of course I know what a dipstick is, you get called something often enough you look it up!

Yes I am a nerd: I am researching the Austrian Mini-racing scene of the 60s and 70s

Re: LATAM Mini Day
Yes produced in Chile. Initial moulds produced by Peel Engineering in Isle of Man. 6 prototypes produced in Cowley prior to moulds being shipped to Chile for production.
Were there any of these at the show. Do many still survive in South America. There are 2 prototypes still here in the UK.

Re: LATAM Mini Day
As far as I know, in Mexico there is only one Chilean mini but I don´t think it was present at the show, very sought after.
