Though not my "cup of tea" as they say, I like them John.  As always your photos seem to make them come alive.  I think for me it's the color.

I chose the Rallye model. It edged out the Union Jack livery model.

Lovely set of Minis. I would love both of these on my display shelves. Loved driving the full sized unmodified version although only got to sit once in the Rallye car.

Great pics John.  My next door neighbor had a white over yellow 1:1.  It was more like a go kart thank a car. 

Wasn't there some issue with the Franklin Mint's rally edition that caused them to pull it for a while?

John, great photos.  Ever since I was a boy, I thought these little cars were cool.  The one you are not showing, which I do not have as well is the Green version, which is rare as well as the Union Jack version.

These are the only two I have. I always wanted the green version, but it was not easy to get and I kind of lost interest now.
