Not just one, but many pictures in a row. Also known as film :lol:
I made a short clip from a video from the Austrian Film Archive. This Viennese Mk2 Cooper S was part of the "Wochenschau 3/1975" (translates: Week Review), titled "No worries concerning parking by using public transport" - There are quite a couple of more Minis to be seen in the full length video.

Notice Kim has the early Wood & Pickett chrome nudge bars which quickly went rusty.....W&P later solved the problem by producing their Mini nudge bars in stainless steel.

Brings back memories of my first job as a junior marshal in a paddock. Armed with my Plymsol white brush I drew a beautiful curly 2 which was frowned upon by the timekeepers. :lol:

That Surf Blue Cooper is probably Ron Fry’s 1071 before he crashed it and repainted it red so probably 1964!?

The E Type (which still exists) is a 1963 car. 1964 is plausible.

A hillclimb in the South west, not sure which one.

This looks like Yeovilton Sprint, late sixties again.

A 25 million quid car now.

Looks like the footbridge bridge at Prescott.

Could it be Gurston down, coming back down the hill after the runs?
