Only if we make them more exciting. But come to think of it, what's exciting about a Mini Marcos!!!

I wouldn't say the Mini was a very exciting vehicle. The Midas is streets ahead of that.
However the Mini has a following that loves the car and sings it's praises like this ....
We need to be proud of our Midases and sing their praises and quit being down about them. The Midas has every bit a claim to sporting pedigree the Mini Marcos has.

"Quit talking them down...."

Very underrated little cars. Like Alan says, if they had a little bit more pizzaz there would be more of a following,
What happened to the Murray boxer engined car? Why isn't someone doing an up to date report on that or replicating it? Would love to see some more interesting variants like this being done,
