I just wanted to say sorry to the two chaps sitting on the grass, obviously waiting for the NRMA on the side of the M5 just outside of cambeltown, with the bonnet of their red with white roof S? up, looking obviously like it wasn't going to move. This was on Sunday morning.

I saw and I thought Gee I really should stop and see if I could help, but then i remembered I didn't have any of my tools with me as I was driving the bombadore. So I just sped past at 110km/h wondering if I should have stopped

So officially, Sorry! Hope you guys got out ok!

If I were in my red with white roof mini (same colour as theirs) and I didn't stop they would have been pretty upset I'd say! Since I was in the bombadore, i melted into the crowd of onlookers

What you didnt see were the two ravishing blondes just out of view also with them. When I stopped I found it was just a small problem with the electrics, I fixed it for them and the two young ladies fixed me for being such a kind and thoughtfull person who stopped and helped them out on there way to the local high class strip club to perform their world famous routine. They did mention something about some B@strd in a Commodore who failed to stop, but I wasnt listening, was too busy thinking of england.

If i ever see a mini broken down i always stop to help out.

I remember 1 very cold winters night back when i was on my p plates cruising the city with some mates when the good old mini broke down right on the main street in kings cross!!!

Couldnt beleive it, just stopped, had 100's of freaks all looking around the car, One of the bouncers of pink pussy cat came over with hes maglight so i could see, then another guy came up to me and said (in an english accent) "Hey mate whats happened, i did 4 years of my apprentiship in england on minis, ill get it going"

After tinkering for a couple of minutes, the mini fired into life, couldnt believe it, wire had come of the coil. Im sure i checked it 3 or 4 times, just goes to show 4 eyes are better then 2.
