Wasn't in the film The Italian Job by any chance Giulio?





No I'm not a burglar banks.....but I should earn much more!!!! with no taxes!!! I drove that Mini because my uncle had one....Dark Green with a white top. Well...I remember I was almost 18 and I learnt driving a car (to get driving license)just with that MINI

Nice car to learn to drive in...your uncle obviously had good taste.

You're right about the fashion thing though...was very fashionable in its early days in France and Italy.
Karlo
Lol...i'm not sure i'd have used the word "accosting" Giulio...maybe "attracting" ?

Well attracting as "recall"or "charm"you mean I suppose....but I meant to "tow"(it is an italian slang...."Rimorchiare"or "Abbordare(to accost)"....Example: while driving MINI you meet a nice girl...and the MINI is the "mean" to "approach"....to start "chatting"with that girl....or viceversa(girl is driving boy is walking)....in special way during summer holidays



PS I hope not to offend anyone....and I'm talking about everyday peoples and not "hookers"!!!!





Well I mean that a MINI was the right car for the "STRUSCIO" another italian slang...I don't know an English word for "struscio"anyway if you shall come to Italy words above could be useful for you.

You do have some interesting words in Italian as you say...hopefully I will make it to Italy one day...my other half has been before and wants to go back!
