This is a bit random – sorry.

A few years back in a UK Mini mag there was an article of a yellow round nose “Bantax” (don’t quote me on the spelling or name) racing replica. Canary yellow, black roof, bonnet stripes and side stripes that started at a point at the headlights and got fatter towards the tail lights, on 10x6 minilights.

I no longer have that mag – anyone got a simular pic or know what I am on about / have a link? Currently discussing next project with wife (will be hers) and I am having a hell of a time describing it!

Kuzzy,

This Australian Britax replica was once featured in a UK mag, so it may be the car you saw. It's still one of the best presented Minis at WA shows.

Ausmini member "PimpMyMini" might be able to put you in touch with the owner, if you desire.

Edit: linked to a better pic.
