Hey, how ya doing.

If it's all mechanically sound then it looks as if you got yourself a bit of a bargain for a rust free mini!

Welcome to the forum.

Do you have a pic of the mini for us?

You can get discount on insurance from you mini through The Mini Forum, just look at the forum news section.

[myfirstminirick]

as jammy basturd said if you have a rust free mini for that price then that is a fat bargain!!

do: expect wierd but wonderful mini moments

dont: be worried bout most of em! its a mini

[Jammy]

Yea, like if you overtake someone (especially 4x4s), expect them to fly past you a few seconds later, only to slow down and pull back into your lane once they've passed you. Some people don't like being overtaken by a mini!!!
