Any body know what all this is about ?, i was in Mini sport couple of weeks ago and there was two cars with 33EJB on them, i'm guessing one was Paddy's replica, and the other 6EMO with EJB plates ?

scroll down a pic or two !

Picked up a little damage, it looks like.

Rumor has that BMW are paying for a rally type film to be made with clone Monty Minis etc... maybe this filming is intended for future BMW advertising given that rival Audi often show their long ago rally UR Quattro in any new car advert to highlight past sporty times ?

Well that does make a lot of sense

Big production for the launch of the new JCW Cooper S. Big budget, 6 EMO dressed up and Paddys EJB replica. I was supposed to do the driving including the Turini and Monaco grand prix circuit. Things at work conspired to balls it up for me To say I was pissed off is an understatement . Daniel Harper doing the driving now.

There we go, I knew you would know Steve, bit gutting that mate

Just shows how expensive it would be to get the original cars there, Gaydon charge a bomb, rightly or wrongly, but all three winning cars did go back there some years ago. You should have pulled a sicky Steve!
