Louise - I imagine the 'Club' Committee are glued to this forum - if they have any serious interest in Minors at all! It is after all the main 'mouthpiece' of the Club! Therefore - by suggesting on here that the Club should buy this special car - I imagine that is sufficient to stir them into at least some form of response ? The fact that there has been none - that I have seen anyway - suggests to me they are - doing precisely nothing about it.
But I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised!

Hi Big John
I think in this moment the main problem to solve is arrange the purchase of our dream car (1.000.000), and than we start the legal things as you mentioned and also our friend Aupickup, if not we are discuting the angel's sex and in the mean time the car is gone!!! :(

Why not. There are always places that would do this.

For example, my Father(Diver, engineer and chemist) found a U boat gun underwater that had been fitted to a minesweeper that was then sunk near Jersey during the war. He spent 25 years of his life dismantinling it 100ft down, raising it, repairing and restoring it to as new. then just gave it to the Local Museum.

Buy it and then lets see what works best.
