Ive seen that a number of times now, it still puts a smile on my face!
Ultimate rust cure for your moggy....paint it brown, at least that way you dont notice the rust as much!!

I saw it the other day on a re-run of Fifth Gear. Apparently, Tiff's a big Minor fan. I think he still owns one.
The Minor is the car that taught me to opposite lock!

Think Tiff learned to drive on a Moggie.

I'll have the original K series traveller that Tiff drove on Top Gear at the National,plus a DVD of him blasting around Darley Moor circuit in a group of modded Minors. Moose will also feature, on a test done by 'Pulling Power'.
Had a good long chat with Tiff whilst waiting between shots, and yes he's a great fan of standard minors, but it didn't stop him trying to drift the K version. :D

And as far as I know, Moose is headed back over to your side of the world again :(

Many moons ago I did about 40 miles one evening in the snow power sliding the MM around - never even hope to do it any other time!
