Thanks for the great pics. I especially loved the Mini convertible. The was a fellow in Vancouver who raced a Mini roadster, but I've never seen THAT conversion before.  :thumbup: :thumbup: ;D

Yup.  Two of them were there, the blue one and a red one....both with gold V8 badges.  Nasty.  :thumbup:

I'm surprised no one has asked about the glove box being held closed with duct tape. So I will. WTF??

That's what I parked beside.  A fancy Range Rover....Red Green Edition.   ;D :rofl:

I thought it was a great way to start off the day....looking at how far English automotive engineering has advanced and how much more reliable and bulletproof their cars have come.   :rofl: :rofl2:
