Great model Chris. I've always felt the Mini was hard to get right...
Corgi's is as good as any and better than most

Okay, Chris, it's a special Mini. But where's your wife's entry?

BMC/British Leyland really got their mileage out of the Mini with as many different versions they made over the decades. I even have one called a Sprite long after the Austin Healey Sprite roadster had disappeared.

Chris, I respect you for both your knowledge and abilities, but
I checked your wife's picture. IMO, she wins. The composition is nearly awesome. Thanks for the post. And thank her from the bottom of my heart.

informed her of your reply and she says many thanks and that you are a true gentleman.
