Something a bit different...my Mini Cooper
« on: June 06, 2010, 05:44:14 pm »
Hi everyone,

Don't know if anyone else on here has a Mini but I thought I might as well post mine up.  :happy2:

Just had time to give my Mini a wash, take some pics and then it started to rain.  :confused:  :sad1:

 :evilgrin:

EDIT: New pics added yesterday - scroll down.  :wink:

Gave the Mini a really really good clean tonight.

It now looks like it just came out of the show room!   :happy2: :P :driver:

I am getting a bit OCD with this now...  :popcornsoda:   :laugh:

Stunning mate  :happy2:

Do you mind me asking what its worth?

I bought my GF a 85 mini as her first car 10yrs ago and she doesn't stop going on about her little red mini. We scrapped it 8-9yrs ago!! Now the kids are a little bigger and no longer need the pushchairs etc i'd thought of buying her another but they are so hard to come by in reasonable nic! She doesn't like the new ones.

Cheers mate.  :drinking:

As for what they are worth - it totally depends on whether they are in good condition with low mileage.

Have a look on piston heads...plenty of Mini's for sale that vary in price and look really really awesome.  :laugh:

The one I have I think I could get something like 10k for it...but it isn't really mine to sell.  :signLOL:  :fighting2:
