One for Jen

I was just about to leave the Taradale shopping centre a few days ago when I saw a little old blue Mini.  One of the most iconic of European cars.  From the grill I would think this is a MkII which was produced between 1967 amd 1973.  So it's at least 37 years old.  But it was the registration plate which struck me!

  2. LOVE it! Thank you GB! You know I am nuts about all things vintage - oh to think, this cute little vintage classic is driving around with my name on it!

    Thank you GB - Thank you! Is it ok if I copy this photo to use as my desktop background photo?

    LOL - I should mention, sleeping is my superpower - ZZZZZ!!

  3. Jen: Of course it's OK if you use it. I think that the paint was the original. It was certainly the original colour (I could tell from the inside) and it didn't look resprayed. It was a very 'Mini' colour of that era.
