Hi folks!

My name is Dave I'm from Fife up North of the Border. I've visited the site a few times in the past but finally decided to join up and join in! I don't own a mini yet however that should all change soon when I get my current car sold, then the search begins... I can't wait! :proud:

Anyway that's enough about me for now,

Dave :errr:

Welcome! You belong to a mini club already! Good start! All you need now is a mini and and money-printing machine (sometimes called a working wife, sometimes not :proud: ) What's your current transport, by the way?

lol, unfortunately I don't have a working wife, or a non working one for that matter :proud:

Currently I drive this...

Which I love, it's an amazing car but it's, well, rather costly so it's got to go, I've always loved minis so now is the time to finally get my hands on one!

It's for sale so in the extremely unlike scenario that anyone on here is interested feel free to get in touch, the sooner it goes the sooner I get my mini!

That's the first thing everyone asks lol, I've not had the car long but I've had no bother so far, and it's a vast improvement over the old (but legal I suppose) plate:

OK, before we get on to minis, what's that polish you're using there?

IIRC that was done with T-cut, when I got the car the paintwork was far from perfect so after it's first wash I went round removing all the scratches I could and giving it a general polish up, that was the result :proud:

Normally I use Auto Glym Super Resin Polish with much the same result, and I've just bought a clay bar so hopefully she'll be even shinier soon
