MK 1 escort would be nice, maybe Horney could buy her back off you? Just out of interest how much would you be looking for her?

IMHO it's no shame to swap from one classic to another for a while, so go with it. If the mini is truly in your blood you'll be back. Also, don't quit tmf since enthusiasm and experience cross all boundaries (or something like that )

hey id never leave the forum, i stay active on about 30 of em! lol

id like to see £4000 for her.. shes worth it!!!

That is exactly what i was pondering over since a saw a lovely escort down southend a few weeks back! It's good to broaden the range of cars and scenes, but keep it classic!

COR! I really like that BUT, you will miss the mini. Ive been thinking lately about selling mine, but then when I get back into it I realise it is my true love

yeah i know what ya mean, i uses to get it every time i went for a spin... just not getting it as much ( well at all )

Keep her in the garage dude and get something else aswell, i was having the same thoughts with mine but just can't bring meself to get rid. Haven't driven mine since christmas because i can't afford to fix it since being made redundant, start a new job monday though so it's going to be full steam ahead on the mini..

kylie is beautiful, you,ll regret selling her
just tuck her away for a while while you pursue other things

Yep, sounds like you've put too much effort in to let it go even if it's not currently your thing.

I have more than one car. I swap and change and use them all quite regularly. It always makes me appreciate each for what they are.

They're all special.

to be honest if your thinking its time to sell the mini then normally it means it is time to change!
Once the seed of doubt has been sowed then theres (usually) no turning back.
Anyway you can always buy another 1 in the future when the time is right and a mini comes calling
