Thanks a lot, Bob, as a student I was fascinated by the Minor. The last pic is really great, just fantastic.
Let me try for once: rbs, do you think you can recognize the red car?

Surely the Minor must be one of Nic Mann's creations?

And going back to B Bira, his manager was Prince Chula wasn't he? I read the books many years ago.

I think Bira was alluded to on A Question of Sport last week when they referred to Alex Albon as the second Thai GP driver. I can't think of another, am I mistaken?

A nice simple sequence question, and so easy that there are three different answers, all logical, and easily spotted. How many can you find? Answers on a PM to bauble @ Ten/tenths.

Funnily enough, seeing Gérard's interest in Morris Minors I sent him details and videos of Nicks 600bhp Rover V8 turbo with Nitrous powered car from back when I knew him. Posted in the tea break thread so as not to detract from the photos here. Also some info on a subsequent project, his 'Mannic' 4WD clubmans car, fitted with a turbocharged BDT and helped along with a helicopter sourced turbine to reduce turbo lag!

Fascinating cars both. Posted here:

The fascination with Morris Minors reminded me of this sequence from the Classic; Perhaps not my most brilliant of efforts, but it might please Gerry Mo.
