Thats nice!:cool:
Look after it, the late ones do tend to rust a fair bit. She keeping it garaged? |
They're wicked little cars. Still a fantastic display of design skills too, incredibly compact.

sadly not kept in the garage :(
she does use my car if its salty out which should help along with a good clean every weekend |

For that sort of money you're surely better getting a mint 1275 cooper mk2 - quicker and will hold it's value well.
Great fun cars, and shows pretty much every other car since how getting the basics right works |
Always wanted a Mini :D
Van or pickup for me :D |

Oooooooooooh not Mini Man, good look with the after sales :eek2: My bro dealt with a few years back and the bloke is a nightmare and I wouldnt trust him as far as I could throw him tbh.

Love the car!!!
And if you enjoy some ring action, check this out!!! Achims RingMini at the Nürburgring Nordschleife Nurburgring - Google Video :D |
I just missed out on a flying lap in that mini the first time I was over there last year. he left my boss in his track scooby for dead. the bloke knows the track like the back of his hand plus he doesnt use his breaks much lol. he said instead of going to the pub to get pissed he spends all his cash on flying laps and scaring the ****e of people who are mad enough to get in. Fair play to him

Your car looks great, But I am absolutely shocked at how much these go for. Just looked on Autotrader, Some on autotrader are more than I thought they were, new !
