The deals done and I'm flying down to Adelaide on Thursday night and picking up Jim's (mini75) yellow brick and will be cruising back home along the coast road , all 3,500km's of it  It'll be a great test for it, I'm looking forward to the drive as it's been many years since I've owned a mini or had a decent road trip.
So if any of you guys see a 6'2" bearded guy with a mullet in a 78 yellow clubby give me a wave

I'm stopping at Riverwood in Sydney to see my sister and niece then stopping at Gosford to see a couple of old friends there, so the old goat track is the best route. I don't mind the twisty roads, they help keep me alert unlike the long straight stretches
