OK just some quick notes,

I do own a Cooper S the Uk ones are Cooper S's I wouldnt own a Aussie one way too many fakes hence why I bought the Mini Minor in the first place and funny enough now worth more then a Cooper S,

Mokes had 6 all up over the years, none at the moment the price for a good one today I can a lovely restored HOLDEN

The Police Mini details are
1967 Morris Mini Minor
Original spec, original trim and motor 850cc of pure power

The trim took almost 10 years to complete, when we originally found the car at the wreckers, it had the complete original seats, sadly when we collected the car, the fool sold the front seats out of it, these cars rare as it is, ours is the only known original survivor still today

Heres some build pics

--- Updated ---

sorry about pics this was in 1998/99 pre digital cameras

Also yes all have there own names and each has the own personality, funny how that happens

As for trip have some more info on Max, and why he has Burger King all over him

Y minis well my folks always had them over the years and there a real little sports car, and there bloody quick lil fellas

Thanks for the kind words so far

OK Maximus, lol named after Russell Crowes in Gladiator, Maximus the great cause he is the greatest Mini I have owned, bought new, and had all the features you would dream of, remember this was PRE - BMW MINI and pre Dana's LE Mini 500

He has lovely trim woodern dash a radio. cd player, a heater, and a woop arse engine, big chunky HSV-Like Muscle's

Why is he wrapped in BK well whilst in UK one of our dreams was to enter the Italian Job Charity rally run yearly Italy to UK, open for only 100 Mini's, wow wow wow, great run rasing money for children in need, the run takes you on some of the most amazing roads and through some awesome towns, we also get to see some of the films original locations

Too enter is was 500 pound per person, plus we had to raise a min 2500 pound, ways to raise money si to sell parts of the car, BK came on board as majour sponsor, my then current employer, I ran the 3rd Biggest Store in UK, Manchester City centre so had a few strings I could pull, they raised the cash, and some, paid for entry, fuel accomadtion on way down to Italy and feed us over and over again lol, so many great freebies and support

Great to use our hobby and passion along with there support to help kids

So Max was wrapped for 12 months used in loads of photo shoots and the best damb marketing car BK has ever seen

Most magical moment for me driving to Head Office for our send of, my HR contact called us and asked our ETA, I said of 15 - 20 minutes he had been asking for updates along the way, turning the corner of the head office outside London, there was a mass of people, 5 stories of BK Staff and local BK Stores had been waiting, we had a royal reception, Aussies on the Job indeed, we were loaded up with gifts and freebies to take to the kids, loads of little PR goodies for the run, our team 42 Dana and I and our friends had enough BK T Shirts to wear a new one every day for 2 weeks lol and so much more to raffle off

The best dam experience, I will dig out some pics, wow wow wow you will be blown away

Another story, lol Agro knows I can talk, and how good would it be doing that in a Van trust me we have thought about it, Touring UK and europe in one and selling before we left, know a few folk who would buy it, lol
