    no problem Leanne! there was a good chance you wouldn't recognise me but I was determined to stop you and say hello! Macy is lovely, had a good look at her! I love the red and PW together and must get a longer test drive in one, loved it the short one I had in a Coupe S.

    Wait no one said anything about Tartan Mini –Skirts being there….

    I hope Dad took another shot, nice one all the same Rob.


    Looked a good day as always with the Mini crowd. Leanne how could you, fraternising with some other group, you know your car would just have finished the NMS group off....
    Mini as it was. As it is. As it always will be. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's up to you to decide if it counts!

    See what you missed Stewart?

    We all know Malcolm loves his extra "headlights", but surely this is overkill even for him
    If ever a photo went from the Sublime to the Ridiculous in the length of a MINI - this is it! BTW, stop boasting Stoney

    Yes and I'm glad you did :) love meeting nms people! The red&pw has went down a treat, I love it more and more each time I see pictures of Macy yeah Joanna you should try get 24 hour test drive, some places do those. I was lucky enough to have Cooper S Coupe for 3 days when my Cooper S was in repairs, instant love with the coupe but always knew it would have to be a JCW for me:)

    I went to something similar a few years back with friends and I’d have been there more for the NMS chat over the cars. I’m sure there were some tasty bits of automotive porn but I prefer classic cars over modified everyday street cars. I’m the one that looks at the lowered new Scirocco with 20 inch alloys and sub woofers coming from all angles and Chipped and body kit and to be brutally honest it does nothing for me. Give me a nice 1965 Austin-Healey 3000 MKIII any day….I’ll get ma Coat! loved the thing at Knockhill a few years back.

    That's quite enough young man! I think we should nip this in the bud immediately!

    Have to agree with you on the Classic Vs "Max Power" stuff Stewart.
    There were a few nice cars there yesterday though, and the power of some of the 'Drift' cars was quite something, but a few "Halfords Horrors" too! I was at the Knockhill Classic Speedfair in '06 when Jackie Stewart, one of my heroes, took his Tyrrell GP car for a few laps - pure magic. I even got his autograph. He apparently got it in the neck from his wife for going too fast!!! Made my day though (and probably his too).
