    At the ripe old age of almost 50 and after owning literally hundreds, yes, hundreds of cars...i had a problem in my younger days...we finally bought our first mini yesterday. It's a 14 plate one 1.5d, and I am hugely impressed to far. Well made, very good on fuel, quiet and characterful. Early days but yup, liking it...so, hi all mini fans!!

    Hi and welcome to NMS.

    They are a few of us that are “not under 49 years old” so you are in very good company.

    Enjoy and be safe.

    Welcome to the over 50s NMS group lol.

    Glad to hear you’re enjoying the new toy and hopefully it’ll continue to impress you like it does most of us on here.

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.
