Oohnever had a mini, girlfriend had a 1275GT but it was damned hard to hump in.
I also had a mk 1 that had a mexico lump factory blueprinted, skimmed and bored to 1750cc, high lift cams, race stock pistons and high lift cam. jaguar half-shafts, corsair 5 speed quick shift high ratio box, anglia prop shaft to limited slip dif. Spax blue max adjustables on the back an gas bilstiens on the front. All on a 1974 escoort that started as an 1100L. It was mental and faster than a Mk 2 RS2000.
( I get out a lot more now, although I still have fast cars, just grown up ones )
