Hi all,

I went to the Goodwood Breakfast Club a few weeks ago and due to the sight of so many Classic Minis, I now have Classis Mini fever once more.

I had a black Mini 30 15 years ago as my first car, G313CFX. It would be nice to know if its still out there!

I've currently got a 9 year old Astra as a daily hack, a Porsche Boxster as a high day and holiday car and my other half has a R56 Mini Cooper S, yet still..... I yearn for a classic mini again.

My dad bought a crash damaged Mk 1 Mini Minor 40 years ago and restored it to health. It was seeing the pictures of this as a teenager that made me determined to have a mini as my first car.

I will post pictures of the Mini 30 and dad's Mini Minor once I've got the photos scanned.

Not that I've got the storage or money at the moment, I'd like to have a looky likey of my dad's old car, but with a few alterations to make it more useable for a grand european tour. Its good to dream!

Look forward to spending some time on theminiforum in the future!
