Not a cyclist so please excuse my knowledge of the subject but Brooks (saddles and cycling accessories) have used a Morris Minor in their latest advert. It's a nice picture so I thought you may enjoy.
I believe the reference of the Morris Minor is to show British Functionality. I don't know why it has to be a police car in the Alps or Overheated when going downhill but that media types for you![frame][/frame]

Not the Alps - it's Chedder Gorge. (I don't get out much).
Re: Panda in the Alps - Brooks Cycling Advert
I think that Brooks owe us an apology for staging such an unlikely event.

Re: Panda in the Alps - Brooks Cycling Advert
