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
