You bring that saucy Viv to the next MCC GM, I will bring the old timer to the next. You got to take me for a spin mate!

Actually.....bring Viv over to my place some time.....the old fella (pops) will have a heart attack when he sees her..... :lol:

I completely agree, i took her for a really big drive today (i should be at work
but im sick...... :wink: :lol: ) from my place to milperra (bout 40mins) she went like
a dream even took her on the m5!!!! thought a wheel might fall off but she
did me proud, its been so long since i drove a mini that was mine (actually
it about a year to the day that i last owned a road legal mini :shock: )

anton - pops will get a fright to see his long lost grand daughter :lol: :lol: i will
bring her round whenever your free, you have a baby and that but let me
know a good day and ill come see pops!!
