Cooper S spotted in Brampton (Cumbria)

Post by Jono »

I was delighted to spot this lovely Mk1 S on my way into the office this morning. Looks as if they were on an overnight stop in the local pub.

...anyone on here?

That's a shocking photo, pure smut in fact and to be fair should have come with this warning for those easily offended. :?

WARNING : The following post contains a graphic image of a Mk1 Cooper S getting rained on due to usage ! :o :shock:

My Mk1 Cooper S gets rained on quite regularly.

I'll be sure to post up a warming before putting any pics up, to protect the easily offended.

I don't think I'd sleep a wink having left a Cooper S parked outside where any undesirable could make off with it.

Guilty as charged. Yes, I use my S even in the rain. Up here in Scotland if you weren't prepared to use it in the rain you wouldn't take it out.

Not been on the forum for a while so only just spotted the post.

Hi Pete,

Don't know what anyone else up here's doing at the moment - been flying solo lately :roll: I'll spread the word at our yearly meeting in February. I'm on the hunt for a tidy car transporter trailer - PRG Minisport, Brian James Minno etc. Maybe get my latest toy down if a trailer turns up.
