There have been many Italian Job replica Mini's built, but I wonder if anyone has ever built a yellow 'Pork Pie replica', complete with missing boot lid!

:lol:

Now there is an idea!

I've thought of it a few times , would be a fun one to have sitting around and you wouldn't really need a good mini to start with . Dodgy a local shell to look like internal hinges , doesn't matter when it's missing the doors anyway . Has anyone over there done a goodbye pork pie run like they do the Italian Job run in EUrope ? COuld be a fun trip ....

Don't forget , if you're going to keep it true to the movie she's got to give you (a) head in a railway carriage and swipe a heap of furniture to decorate the carriage ....

Yeah , good point , enough half naked women standing next to white goods (I think from memory) posters to wallpaper a railway carriage . Or did you mean your cameo in the concrete bunker toilet with the magazines :lol: .....

If you get the director's edition DVD (recently released), it has an interview with Geof Murphy, explaining how it's a deeply religious movie. Although he's a bit pissed in the interview, it does make sense and adds depth to what I thought was just a kiwi road movie.
