That's us ready for the off.


So what do you think guys??? Looking good nice colour match wouldn't you agree.

Really happy how the van is not pulling the back of the Mini down those springs in the Mini must be real strong.

I'm sure my Dooper will have enough power lets hope the clutch and gearbox hold out. Off down to the south west of Scotland it's the journey home that might test it a bit.

Some pics taken on my iphone.

It sure is the very van. Not to big looks small in the pics actually.

Glad to hear the Tig done her job I was never in any doubt :thumbs up: that she wouldn't.

Hope my Mini tows as well as your dads tig.

** just got delivered today our new PDQ awning. This hopefully will save any arguments now when setting up.:Whistle:

If MINI USA saw us do that they would void our warranty - no questions asked:eek:

Bigcoyote, for the avoidance of doubt, those pics are a joke. There's no way Fi would tow that caravan with a MINI. She has a 4X4 tucked away out of shot somewhere. Exactly which 4x4 it is this month, I'm not sure.:eyes up:

For goodness sakes woman, have you not only just taken delivery of a Skoda or Kia something-or-other?!?!?:eyes up:

Never known someone who goes through 4X4's the way you do.:Whistle:

I'm just jealous, you understand.:blush:
