Only 4 million to go to match classic Mini. Speaking of old Mini - that Almond Green colour was one of the limited choices available on 1961-68 Mk 1 Coopers. Almond green body with old english white roof. Quite appropriate really. Pity they don't make a limited edition Million edition. Alwaysopencharlie - you could get your dealer to respray your car... or can you get an individual car made by the factory like BMW offer?</p> Happy 1st millionth!!!

I think the owner of this car used to post in NAM but it would be interesting to know if he still owns the car.

Interesting that the 1 million R56 MCS is a left hand drive model.
