sadly I'm only here to sell my mini - have had it for a year or so and joined a couple of forums, only just been alerted to this one as I posted a for sale ad on another forum!
would love to keep a hold of it but times have changed and need a sensible car!

yeah, it's a real shame as I'm surrounded by quiet single track roads where it's the most fun!!

if the estate one was cheaper I'd go with one of them but not got the funds for one of those yet...!
wee bit of interest in the car now but in no great rush to sell - away for a spin this weekend, fresh oil and filters so running nice, might even treat her to some premium fuel once i get off the rock...

Ahhh MULL!!! :thumbs up: One of my fave places.
Had some great drives there, mostly from Craignure down to Bunessan on my way to Uisken/Ardalanish Bay - when I've found one of the quickest ways down the road is to get behind the Royal Mail van! They take no prisoners! Here he is on his day off...

So.... I'm back again! Thinking of a clubman... But for some reason I can't browse the general discussion forum, says I'm not logged in and don't have permission... I can however click on the most recent thread and read it!!

Chrome on android - it's just the general one I can't see, all the others seem to work fine!

Hi bud, I bought your wee S, had it for a short time, sold it and regretted it was a lovely car and colour! Have had lots of cars since then, have a Cooper but wanting another S now. My friend has a lovely Clubby S that came with almost every accessory (except sat nav) from new although he bought it second hand receipt was for about £30,000 if i mind right! Great car would love one myself, will put up some pics of his soon
cheers Paul

Hi Paul, Good to hear from you - did you get that wee bit fixed on the boot lid? Really regretted selling that wee car as I bought a big bus for the wife and dug to go back and forward to work - then landed a job in the city!! bigger car is handy with all the gubbins associated with a kid right enough! you still doing the detailing?
