On Days Like These A686 in a Mini 

Great video, top stuff. I've owned a few Minis and I'm not afraid to tell you I cried when I had to sell my last one to buy a "sensible" family car!!! Thanks for the memories

Remember that road alright - towing a trailer up the other way, awful! rain and snow for me - you obviously had one of the good weather days, nice vid, thanks

beautiful ! absolutely beautiful ! i cant wait to get my hands on a classic mini !

What a fantastic road! I enjoyed this, partly because you took all the lines I would have taken, braked as I would have braked and pushed on where I would have pushed on, and didn't drive like a wuss. Many YT videos annoy because they jar with how I'd have done it. Hats off!

Great video - thanks.

What a great road that is :-) Nice vid Stu ;-)

The English Job!! Ah that A series engine, bringing back memories of our Clubman! Excellent video, perfect "answer" to the original film.

What a lovely journey.. in a Mini... listening to Matt Monro singing On Days Like These...

Great video mate

Super video! That A series sounds pretty good, but I prefer the Miura's V12 ;-)

Did you intentionally set the revs of the engine to match the beat of the music for a few seconds after 4:20? :) Lovely video!

so cant wait until i pass my test :) thanks for the vid

Magnifico! Bravo!

Awesome vid there man :)

@TheManFromAfghan @TheManFromAfghan I was in my '92 Sprite that day, I've also got a '63 Austin Mini and a '68 Morris Mini Traveller.

That works all right.

Glad you liked it Graham, Thanks

Great Fun, Good Video, At least you can hear the Mini, more than can be said for the Lambo' Thanks for good laugh.

Glad you liked it!

My mini was twatted up and down that road many times. Antilope beige with a white roof. I'm not sure why I want to share this info. I suppose I just miss it.

My all time favorite road , but going up from melmerby to hartside is better because you can really rip out of those bends , its great on a fast bike and in a fast car , I was following an R1 on my bandit 1200 and he was getting more frustrated because he couldn't leave me , up near the top there's a right hand hair pin ( going up ) followed by a double apex left hand bend , I came round the hair pin and him and his bike were lying in the road , I helped him get his bike up and he said it slipped on the non existing gravel , he was a greenhorn and hadn't had the R1 long , I asked him why was he slapping the tank with his hands and he said he was frustrated because he kept cocking the bends up and it was his first time on that road , I've been using that road for well over 40 years and know it extremely well and its not a road that forgives young greenhorns on fast bikes.

Cool

@AshleyGleaveDesign Yes i was have a bit of fun!

Perhaps when the kids have grown up you'll be able to sell the sensible family car!
