    Hi I have just bought the car I should have bought a few years ago. A R53 GP1. Been enjoying it so far. Had a history of minis from a mini one to a copper s checkmate that we sold when my family are young. My son now drives a new cooper s after I suggested he would enjoy it. Looking forward to some tips on making the most of my new old car! Cheers

    Congratulations on finally getting the one you were after.

    We have an owner's gallery if you'd like to stick up some pics of either car and there's a run this weekend led by one of our members.

    If you'd like to come along just let us know in the run thread.

    Thanks. Can’t make Sunday but would be interested in future runs. Are their any good independent mini garages in Scotland? The care was serviced by 1320 in May so I’m ok for a while but just interested to know what is available here?

    I long with others use B&M Centre in Glasgow, used them for a good while now and always great work carried out.
