Very nice, thats the 'tunnel' mini isnt it!

Yes, although it
rightfully sits at Gaydon it doesn't have the same appeal as it did in the tunnel. Not sure if it's the location or the fact that the A panel had been straightened? The second car is the Issigonis special, his own personal hill climb car, hand made and thought to be the first car he ever built

I love the Heritage Centre at Gaydon although I've not been for several years. Didn't know God's.....sorry, Sir Alec's lightweight was there, didn't see it last time I went :shrug:
Have they still got the archive room? You used to be able to read all sorts of literature and view old drawings etc from Longbridge and Cowley.
Great gift shop as well :D

An old 1275GTS I used to have in Zimbabwe, my son posing one Sunday morning next to it in the garden.... He's now 32!

I believe you still can Paul although it's due to close for a refurb. I believe it reopens early next year. They are building a new centre at the end of the car park towards the original entrance which will have guided tours, this means that when you visit all the cars can be seen with none hidden away in storage :)
