It all started when Miles decided we were going to do the Italian Job this year. What he didn't realise was that my mini just wasn't up to it. This resulted in a search for our ideal mini: Something as new as possible without being a BMW Mini, something that would last the trip in comfort (?) and style, not to mention something that would be great fun to throw around the twisty roads that wind through the Alps.

Why?

Why not it looks like fun……and c’mon its for charity so dig deep in your pockets and help us burst our target of raising £3000 for the UK’s leading children’s charity NCH (www.nch.org.uk).

first track




Another magic day. We headed to Adria race circuit for our first bit of totally crazy driving. For obvious safety reasons we were basically following a safety car around the track, however, we still got to rally the car just about as quick as we could around the corners. Its a pretty small track, but excellent fun. Plus since there was some touring car action also going on we got to see some pretty serious eye candy both cars and girls!
