changin the subject slightly, on the way back from pod on central day i was between oxford and swindon on the A420, and there were a fuck load of landrovers doing like 25mph on the duel carrageway, i didnt know what the fuck was going on so i nailed it past the lot of em (good 200+ ) and was nearly past em all when i saw a tripod set up on a fly over, thinking it was a speed trap i fookin dropped anchor and hit the brakes

got to me missus mum and dads and about 6pm on the news what do i see, a fuck load of landrovers trying to break the world record for the largest convoy...
and som c*nt in a black escort doing the lot of em

mrs dad said, hmm, is that you?

Got some way to go before they get the record then. I was in the convoy at Silverstone in 1989 when we had over 4000 Minis on the track at once.

Was helping marshal the start of this last year at Crystal Palace. Directing traffic, releasing the mini's from the start site. Took fcuking hours to get 'em all out. My flatmate is well into his minis. I was totally sick of 'em after that.

BMW brought Rover with 600 million in debt... and left rover with 50 million in the bank!!!!!

So explain to me why they sold rover then?

Besides that like selling a car, whos gonna buy one that isn't working when you can spend a bit of money, fix it and someone will happily buy it.

Why do you think?

The Rover workers refused to sign new contracts at longbrige... nowt unfair in them... just asking for flexiable hours like EVERY other car plant in the UK runs!

The said no... went on strike... can you see a pattern here?!?!

Anyways, enough on Rover. Only a very small number of minis where built after 1996 anyway!! LOL
