A True Mini (Pick-Up) Adventure









This amazing little Mini pick-up was once owned by my family, now 50 years old, it is currently parked somewhere in Japan and I believe is for sale. I wrote about 10 MWL, the Mini pick-up that was driven all the way from Oxford, UK to Moscow, Russia in 1961 by the then mayor of Oxford and a friend on a single, custom 50 gallon fuel tank, in a previous blog. 

It seems that even at the age of 50 she's still travelling the world; a very interesting little car indeed and I would love to have her back. Deep, nostalgic sigh!
