Hello,

I'm trying to find the first owner of my Mini Pick-Up, according to the
registry of Austin/British Leyland it should be Bourne Gardening in or near
Helston, Cornwall in March 1978.

Yes, I know, it's a long time ago, never the less, I will not give up (yet).
I've written several emails and letters to cardealers, history centres and
gardening compagnies, unfortunately no one can tell me about Bourne
Gardening.
So that is why I try here; If you have any information (anything at all) or
know where I should inform  please contact me (by newsgroup of email).

Almost forgot:
The Mini Pick-Up is exported to the Netherlands in 1995. Pictures of how she
now looks are found here:

Thanks for your time.

Best wishes,
Bertina

Try on uk.rec.gardening , it's the big newsgroup on gardening in the UK and
a number of the regulars live and works around the Cornwall area.
