Just showing off a shot I took with my new full frame DSLR in the workshop this week, I'm pleased as punch. This is pretty much as it came out the camera, just a few small tweaks and the RAW conversion to JPEG.

:roll: Just an tip, if you make a picture like that make the picture a bit lower fom the Mini.
This will help to look it much better and more bigger, more like the size it is.

Then a fresh 1380 lump, 12" wheels and a new grill. Was easy back then, I would spend my earnings in the shop where I worked. Plenty of parts readily available. That engine went really well but hated tickover :(

I hope it still exists - according to the DVLA website it hasn't been taxed since August 2002. I remember taking the photos of it that day in '91 and drooling over it, all I could afford at the time was a slightly ratty looking twelve year old Clubman and the thought of owning a proper Cooper S seemed light years away.
