"Sandra’s divorce settlement was particularly messy."

"…. and the insurance is still twice what it was last year!!"

"The insurance claim form made for very interesting reading after Karen’s ill advised trip to the industrial saw mill."

Sheila was feeling optimistic on the way to the scrutineering bay that she hadn’t lightened the shell too much. “Still maintains the silhouette!!”

"You know what it's like, you start cutting out the rot and before you know it...."

"It isn’t half a car !"

"Only had a 50% down payment.."

Thirty years ago on the '94 L-2'B run, I can't believe it's so long ago, I can remember taking these and thinking ''I'll never be able to afford one of those...'', three decades later I'm on my third Mk2 Cooper..!

Fabulous, I know exactly where that picture was taken and is in fact still the Police station!...the Chapel over to the right background stood until fairly recently. The Railway was directly behind the trees and the direct background now is an Aldi, McDonalds complex. My Dads first 997 Cooper was in a similar series of registrations 2 DDM!!

Great history! I had a 1970 Mini Clubman which I sold over two years ago with the registration CDM and still had the original dealership keyring from Automobile Palace in Llanfairpwll on Anglesey.
