My Minis

Post by dub_mini »

Hey Guys,
So after searching through numerous for sale ads, I finally went ahead and got myself a classic Mini to keep the r53 company.
I will be adding a couple more pictures while I'm working on it. Looking forward to meeting some people out and about also!!

Welcome to the club. The hillbilly run is coming up in Wicklow soon and is always a good run. Good opening run out.

That looks to be a lovely Mini you have bought to keep the R53 company.Have to say my interest in the MINI finished after they stopped R50/R53 production,became a little too bloated to look good anymore so you have the best of both in my eyes.As Spud said come along to the Hillbilly run,always good fun.
Real Clubmans have a square nose.Seriously.

Thanks kerryminigringo! I will definitely be at the hillbilly run!

Definitely DaveC! If anybody lives around the area, pm me and pop in and say hello, or I can meet you, would be great to see some local minis! I know there is 3 black pre 1980 minis within 5 mins of my house, wonder if they are on here?

I have to say CB_Phil, up until I got "Alfie" (The Classic) I was thinking of getting rid of the Cooper S, but having both cars really makes you appreciate the workmanship in both! They are completely different in my opinion but it really is like having the best of both worlds.
