    guessing it would be almost as fun to drive as a mini. I've heard they are good fun to drive

    It's Japanese, those people know a thing or two about reliability. Probably a good idea to check for common issues online before buying it though.

Keep looking at fantastic 4 bed detached houses in about an acre and a half of land for less than £75k. In Ireland. Getting more and more tempting....

    That's why I moved to Poland, bigger and cheaper houses, more space, less people - a better lifestyle for me.

    I'd rather have them repainted than clean them!

    Have you not got an enormous fruitbowl in the kitchen full of keys/old padlocks/mints/loose change/bits of post/receipts? I thought everyone had one of those :-D

    or you do like I do and go off searching for something in the garage, only to then realise you have already used or sold it 6 months previously.

Just watched an old sitcom called 'The Wilsons' and it stars a very young Jake Wood and he drives a Pink Mk3 in it!

    Try almost 2 years. The last mini I drove was Lyndsey's Violet and only briefly. I thought after driving modern cars I would be disappointed but no. They still have the same appeal as they did when I first learnt to drive.

Anyone around St Helens, Merseyside got a new 59d dizzy cap, 1989 mini 30, and willing to sell? If not I'll go need to travel to m&m's in warrington, the only place open on Sunday with the parts available.
