Saw 3 nice minis today. They are all mint here in Malta. One of them was parked so I popped a IMOC spotting card on it. Let's see if they join.

Just drove to Valletta to collect father in law from work and saw 6 minis. First 2 parked in paceville a surf blue kinda coloured one with for sale sign and a white mk2. Then a beany green driving thru st julians beeped and waved but he just looked at me like I had 2 heads. (then again was driving an old 86 Mazda 323 sedan.) then on way back saw a white 90's city on coast road and few minutes later a black mini on 10's. Then just pulling up home at Qawra saw a nice navy/black with bonnett stripes.
