Good old days of Mini racing

Kees.

Nice typically European looking Mk1 in a long forgotten French flick from 1968... Early 1275GT photo shoot in Carnaby Street... Not sure on this one but interesting looking car... Francois Hardy finds a parking ticket on her Mk1 Cooper... Little and large...

Whose motor is this?

Mick Jagger's W&P Stu, pic is taken outside a courthouse where Jagger was up on drugs charges, Summer of '67. There's a clip of it on Pathe News.

And the girl was my heartthrob of the era, Marianne Faithfull

And here's the only photo I've ever seen of Jagger in the car.

This shot is when he arrived back from an overseas gig, pictured at Heathrow in April 67

Not seen this one before Pete thanks for posting. That was their last full tour with Brian still in the band, a quickfire stint around Europe with chaos and riots ensuing at pretty much every gig they played.

Pete - just seen your posts on these photos on the FB W&P group, the driver is one of the lads employed by the band's right hand man Tom Keylock for various duties, including driving them around, procuring nefarious substances etc

Anyone remember the reg of Mick's W&P Mini?
