I've been saying I would buy a classic Mini "one day" since I first saw them when I was 5 years old. Now that we've got a bigger shop and I've dove into the automotive industry, it was time to finally realize that dream.
I just recently picked up this El Paso Beige Austin Mini. It's a RHD and it's got the little 998 A-series under the hood. I will forewarn those that are eager to see progress that this will be a slow build. Work keeps me rather busy and this is a car that I'm going to keep for years to come so I'm going to take my time with it. With that said, I've been having a unreal time just driving it around. Everyone always talks about how enjoyable the driving experience is behind the wheel of ones of these things, and they aren't kidding. I've fallen in love. A little background story on my love for Minis: http://www.stanceworks.com/2013/07/t...d-a-trip-back/ ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Looks like a great base to start. I test drove one for my mum and it took under a minute to want it for myself.

I've been thinking that the only fwd car i'd add to the stable was a classic. The one you got is friggin gorgeous. That color just photographs so well. Body looks super clean. I'd love to help spin wrenches on this thing so I know what I'm getting into in the future. LMK if you need a hand.
