Hi all, the mini restoration thread reminded me of when we had a mini. It was just an ordinary one, but I was passing Beatties (gone now, replaced by an Irish theme pub!) and saw a mini kit in the window. I thought that looks just like our one! It was! Everything was correct. The colour was a mauve or Aconite as they called it, the registration NOJ 637 M was correct.
I really wish I had bought one but I didn't, I have a feeling there may still be some touch-up paint in the garage for it, now that really would be authentic.
Has anyone else found that their own car had been 'kitted'?
regards to all Roy
