I took my MG Midget out for a drive the other Sunday, if it was red it would've been an exact reinactment of 'Red Barchetta'.

Also, this isn't the most amount of signs I've seen there.

Go to Google and search 'too many road signs' in images and this is the second image.

I was always led to believe that the Ultimas were destroyed for tax reasons to save money rather than to hide secrets, which makes it a bit more of a bummer.

This happens all the time. Our newspapers love making up bullshit about the EU. I'm surprised the Telegraph picked it up, but it's typical for the Daily Mail.

The 1.8 VTEC AWD classic Mini.

You know what really happened to her in the Forbidden Forest don't you?

rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble!

Once, while I was 'between Minis' I had to drive a mid 90's Vauxhall Corsa. It was an absolute piece of shit, and had been used solely as a first car by every single driver who'd owned it since it was new. It had been ragged.

You sicken me.

I was once stopped by a police officer because my car was 'unsafe'. It was a classic Mini that was missing the bumpers, chrome rings around the lights, grille and a passenger side wing mirror.

Ultima GTR?

I didn't call him, he called me! I'm just as upset as you are, I don't want phone calls from dead car designers! I've had to call my phone provider and get the number disconnected and everything.

Either way, he was angry.

I've had this guy called Alec Issigonis on the phone ranting and raving about something called the 'Mini?' I'm not sure what he's on about, but he sounds pissed.

I'll duck down. It'll be fine...

I need them to make me a Mazda 767b to take to Le Mans with me next year. I need it SO BAD.

Well this left me in a cold sweat.

Can I just say, as a Brit, to all those who are slating us for having historic artifacts from various ancient societies and not giving them back;

The Queen asked me to pass on a message, she says those greasy bastards couldn't even afford the postage!

Except we get to decide if the ring stays in the country. In this case America aren't the World Police!
