Thursday Postcard Hunt | Mini

Again, a re-posted postcard for Thursday Postcard Hunt..

This postcard was sent by John (UK), and a bit damaged on way. It was issued by Royal Mail on 13 January 2009. It was reproduced from a stamp designed by HGV and featuring photography by Jason Tozer of a Mini. The postcard arrived with this matched stamp of a Ford Anglia 105E on its back:

      Nowadays, most cars are grey or white around here.

      For some reason, I would always associate Minis to Italy :)

    Cute little cars. I like seeing stamps on postcards, the image side I mean.

      These are nice. Long time since I have received one, though. I don't know if they still issue them.

    The mini has ballooned in size since those days, I think the old mini was a lot more fun although it was very basic inside.

    That was my father's first car, An Austin Mini 850, with sliding front windows and a cord that you pulled to open the front door.
    Just like the one in the card, only British racing green in colour (the only thing racy about it...)
