A Range Rover. Sad but true!

And I got one, all be it an old banger! Long gone now, moved on to better things!

My first car (that I bought myself) was a Mini. Yes, I got the Mini bug, and throughout my teens I just wanted the best and fastest Mini I could get. So 1.3 engine transplants and what not, I did them all.

But I grew out of the Mini thing in my twenties, and fell in love with all Jaguars. E-Types especially. But I also liked the MkIIs. I did most of the restoration work for a friend's E-Type back in the 80s, when parts were readily available. It'd be so much more difficult now. I'd need about £20k to get a good one now.
