According to the RDW it's even still in the country and alive. Do you know where or have you lost contact with the car?
Of course I know what a dipstick is, you get called something often enough you look it up!

Yes I still know the car and the owner, they are still very happy with it. The Cooper is still alive and kicking. I still have the original number plate from the front, found it some time after I sold it. I will keep it together with the picture from J.C. and me.

Well there are a lot more reject photos which never made it to the image export, I think I took about 50 or so on the day, so this is by comparison a "small" selection :lol: :lol:

Not sure but I bought it from MCR member Dick Robinson in July 2008 and sold it to a guy in Leamington in 2010. Wish I hadn't now, naturally.... :roll:

That was after Phil sold it. I think he sold it in the mid 90’s.

Was a nice car .
