My second car was a bright red 1973 Mk1 1300 Sport (cut down spec GT - with the mildly uprated GT running gear, XL interior and flared wheel arches as per the RS). It was quite a change from the Mini that preceded it - I'm not sure the handling was better, but the rate of progress was ;-).
I liked that car.
