John Cooper inspects the KAD 16V Mini at Beaulieu

Post by mab01uk »

John Cooper inspects the KAD 16V Mini at Beaulieu in the early 1990's...I remember he was impressed when the bonnet was opened!
I think this Mini was KAD's demonstrator car at the time. (The Reg No. is on the bonnet unfortunately my other shots don't show it).
