Sam , Don't be sorry mate, it was my fault for not acknowledging your post (I'm afraid it was very late 1-44am)

Alway's enjoy watching "precision driving" and that Stop at the end was a ripper, couldn't do that with a RWD car . Also , even if the topic "drift's" a little (pun intended ) it's good to discuss the the advantages of other cars' & let's face it , the mini was a Ground Breaking little car . What other car has recently released models so similar to the original 40 odd years later . We wouldn't have discused other things about Mini's if you hadn't posted .

I've got a movie clip (not you-tube) with some "drifting" , that old it's in B&W , also one of SAAB precision driving . If you'd like a copy of them PM me your email and I'll send them to you (got to learn to post them , but I'm on D-up , very slow , Haha) .

Yes mate , Awsome little car's , Bro-in-Laws car had a 1475cc in it with a twin Weber crossflow head & with 13 x10 wheels on the front . The motor cost him towards the $10,000 mark in 1980 .
