Thought I'd introduce myself here.
My names Jack, 20 years old and I live in Wallington, Surrey.
I dont own a Mini yet but im hoping to buy a Rover Mini Cooper in the near future when I get my no claims bonus.
So yeah, Hey

Welcome to TMF!!!

Minis are awesome, you'll never want anything else!

[JackJack]

Yeah I've always wanted one. Just constantly checking autotrader or pistonheads looking for a decent enough one.
Does anyone know of any other cars for sale websites?

E bay can be a good place to find Minis for sale. Just use your common sense and make sure you go and look at it before bidding.

You can get some pretty good deals on ebay.. But be careful on that front.

Look for a good one, and look for faults and rust and all that malarkey.

Look for rust everywhere wings (front end) sills (floor bit under the doors) ect, ect. Look under the carpet, under the spare wheel in the boot, in the rear pockets... like i said. everywhere .

Best of luck with mini ownership (i cant even drive and love it ) let us know how you get on .

Jono.

Welcome to TMF mate

Keep an eye on the classifields here aswell, you could also try exchange and mart online, free ads online, minimag and miniworld or even go to a few shows?

Good luck on your search

Cheers guys. Will definitely look out for the rust as ive heard thats a problem in Minis.
Again thanks for the help with the online searches.
Hoping to get a mini soon and become a proper member of the forum!
