Plenty of mini action at the Autotest in Mondello yesterday.
BTW the Paul Hickey built Autotest mini was there as well, I'm pretty sure there is a thread here somewhere about it.

Also spotted this one in Paris last week.....saw quite a few mini's but all in traffic and could never get the phone out in time for a pic.

John Smith was the guy in Pocahontas, Paul Smith is the guy who styled the LE Mini.
