My family went to Perth over Christmas, for the week, as some of mum's family live over there, and I spotted a few Minis....please excuse the large size. I don't know how to reduce, and can't be bother trying!

A black leyland (LS?) in the streets of Fremantle, 23/12. I only had my phone, but I'm suprised how well they turned out. XPG-***? LS grille/foglights, chrome wheels, green P...

A visit to Minicraft to get an oil filter (because we never got around to getting one in VIC!).

A sad looking white one in front of a house, on a main road.

Force 7

My poor attempt at a sand Mini. By the time I piled up enough sand I could hardly be bothered going into detail and just scratched some lines in it. Dad found a For Sale sign floating around so stuck it on.

We were staying with my uncle and aunty in their new house, so had a pool, air con etc. but the weather was so hot! It was a relief to get home :lol: and then it was a 38'c day in VIC!

Not many important (automotive) museums left.
I heard there are quite a few minis & mokes around the Palm Beach area :wink:

Hmm-I wondered/thought that it was Palm Beach,as I know that colour of the beach sand,because I live across the road from there :) Hence AWD's comment about the Minis and Mokes :D

I never would have expected that! :lol: Some people came up and took some photos of the sand Mini. I thought 'wouldn't be funny if it were someone from ausmini.' The possibility of that happening was higher than I thought! :shock:
