sketch of the day in my moleskine art journal is classic vintage retro 1975 mini 1275 Gt. My first car. This one I coloured in orange but mine was purple. I dont have a purple faber castell marker pen.
When I turned 16 my dad asked me what car would I like. I replied instantly without a doubt nor hesitation, “I want a car exactly like Mr Bean’s”. My dad looked uncertain, “Are you sure that’s what you want?” I replied, “Yes. In Purple.” That was one of my favourite gifts. I have since sold Petunia my purple mini and I have never loved any other car since.

I guess u either hate him or love him but the mini is still my favourite. I got the new mini when it came up but was disappointed.

What a wonderful story, I took over my little fiat from my mother in 1979 and drove it until 1987, when I reluctantly got rid of it. Best wishes and blessings, Charles.
