Yup thats right it is a very sad day for me today... I had to get rid of my pride and joy today, because I have still not managed to find a job yet and the money I had has now been used up trying to keep my MINI but has now all gone...

And I can all hear you thinking now, ...well what are you going to be driving now then? WELL... this is what I am now going to be seen in!!! :frown: :sad:

1738
It's an 'L' reg clio 1.2 with 62000 on the clock...

And I hope none of you are laughing because I sadly am not!! But in the long run I WILL get another one when I can get back on my feet! :yes nod:

Sorry to read that you had to give the Mini up, better to do that than get in debt over car. Actually I don't think your Clio looks bad for a L reg and with 62k on the clock not that bad..... it's a classic. Your a mechanic are you not so I would imagine it will be no hassle to keep the old bird on the road.

Hopefully you get a job soon any idea what you want to do??

Am sorry to hear that Zimbo. Hope the mini goes to a good home and that job turns up for you soon. When you do find yourself back in work and up and running again and get another mini, you'll appreciate it all the more. Best of luck with the job hunting. Have you got a name for your wee Clio? A mean its not its fault its not a mini and am sure it will run all the better for being made part of the family.

Thank you for all the kind comments guys, yes it is sad seeing the driveway without my mini in it but I am unfortunately old enough to know that in the end it is just a car and I can and get another one again at some point. :rolleyes:
