Does anyone in this forum own a Mini derivative?

Especially the Minis listed in Jereon Booij's 2009 book "Maximum Mini" - like the De Joux, Boro GT, Broadspeed GT, Radford etc.

You can view this book at

The owner of the Taylorspeed Jem (Tspeed Jem) which is on page 110 of that book is a regular on here. He races his car (mainly at MRA events at this stage).

They need to put a date on their site!

Some awesome Lotus Cortinas on there, too. They probably sold in the late 70s.
