Welcome - any thoughts of writing a book?
 
Welcome!
My dear old Dad worked for Rootes very briefly in the 50s.

What is funny now is that the separation of BL and Peugeot has come full-circle: The new '07 MINI will come with a Peugeot engine.
 
YES NEW MINI ENGINE IS THE HPI TURBO (MORE TORQUE THAN A DIESEL),IT WILL BE FOLLOWED SHORTLY BY THE TWIN TURBO !
