why didn't BMW just do that with the Bini - I can almost respect it... LOL he can't run a sticker that says "100% BMW parts free" either

The Hatchback one... Richard Starkey (Ringo from the beatles) Had one of those, no back seat..... was able to fit a Drum kit in it !!

I believe it was a Radford conversion (Mmmmmm, Radford...)

Cheers all

I remember the green KAD headed hatchback mini was in an old issue of fast fours. Ages ago, like 1997ish? :?
It was on the ront cover with a red turbo 850 that used to hail from Alstonville in NSW.
It had the rego QIK-850. It was the fastest front wheel drive in australia at one time. Used to do mid to high 12's! :shock: It got written off on a photo shoot for miniworld. :cry:

The guy now has that yellow supercharged 850 roadster that was in FF a couple of months ago.

Lucky.
