Hej Thomas!

Looks and sounds great

My son and I, made a small video with the rally Mini today, in the same style as 8 port injection video, that has been so popular

Excellent, enjoyed that! Your heater intake hose seems to be getting a bit, err, excited!!!

I have driven that car originally several times... Tommy was my best playmate when we were small children. We lived close to each other and in later years I hund around the workshop when it was built. The two brothers and their father were very very meticoulus in their work. Also helped by the fact the eldest brother were traing to become a mechanical engineer.... I drove it to 100mp but Tommy my friend had done over 210k

So I found this old seat in the basement

Sat in that seat

My father gave the permission for rally in that place...

Spent many many hours there... scout events, early scout meetings... even got a scar on my hand when I put it through a window of one of those doors

Every detail is absolutely fantastic.

Certainly my "Find of the years" so far.

Absolutely... Otto, their father taught them well to be thorough. The also got support from a Mini wizzard of the day.. Jan Mortensen

Jan "motor" Mortensen, a legend in Danish Rally. Won the Danish national Rally championship i 1973 in a MK2 Cooper S, and went on with other BL cars Morris Marina 1.8 TC, Triumph Dolomite Sprint, TR7 V8, and then went to Ford with a Escort RS Turbo, Sierra Cosworth and Escort Cosworth.

Fed tråd !!

Det vil være interessant at se den en dag!

Good to see the car back "in action"

Think you first told me about it in the mid 90ies.

Thank you JC and Nino, I have been dreaming about to make this happen for many years.

What a great story!

Picture from yesterday, what a memorable day, the original owners of this old rally Mini, Tommy and Ole Borring Møller back in the car, for a quick test drive. The brothers developed and raced the car in the period 1977 to approx. 1984. Tommy's 30-year-old son got a drive in the car too. As a child, he used to sit in the car and imagine what it would be like to drive. All his life he has been told the stories of this fast little car, now it was time for him to try. Happy Days.

That's a really cool Story!

I imagine you had a super Day with old Storys about the good old times!

Very nice story, indeed

Yesterday we had the Mini out for some action with the danish MG Club. Son did the fastest lap of the day 1.34 and I did the second fastest 1.40. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jacdJEccehQ

Very nice! Thanks for sharing Thomas!

We took the Mini out this evening for a small rally test, and this time I was faster than my son, he had trouble with handbrake turns, which he had never tried before. In fact, the Mini was the fastest overall, up against BMW E36 with 500hp and MK2 Golf with 250hp VR6 engine. On the last test it ended with some twist and shout. Driveshafts should be old Jack knight.
