Quirky and fun back in the day when I could actually fit in one.

@bob-jackman, I recently drove a friend's. I don't remember them being that hard to get in and out of and they have definitely shrunk over the years!! 🙄

I owned one, too...

Much fun to drive in, but terrible sheet-metal.

In South-America they had fiberglass-Minis.

Should have built them for other countries.

Here is one....notice the differences.

 

1969 Austin Mini   South American build with fiberglass body (3447765583)

John K., It's bad enough that the cleaners shrinks my clothes, but the car wash has shrunk my cars as well.
