Clint Eastwood
Cars and 'Gran Torino' make Eastwood's day
He (Clint Eastwood) values another quality, too: uniqueness. "I've got a Morris Mini Countryman. That's kind of an interesting little car. It came from England and has all the Mini Cooper S racing gear but in a mini station wagon.
"It's a cool car, because there aren't many like it."

Clint Eastwood also owned a green/white Mk2 Cooper S...nice original car.
I think he bought it new. The last time I saw it was in the mid 80's.
