hi all,
i am a german now living for working purposes in b'ham.
end of june i will get my car over here, which is a mini 25.
i would like to know if there have any more cars survived the years...
so, please, if anybody knows someone who owns a 25er, please let me know.
i am wondering to put up a website as there are such for the 30 and the 35.
but the 25 always was left a little bit behind... :sad:
why so? any ideas?
happy to be here...

Welcome to the site!
Do you have any pictures of your mini?
As for the Mini25 site, I did some googling and found this:
http://utenti.lycos....ini25/index.php
Not exactly huge but its there

One Carb Or Two?

mine's a 25 although its been changed ever so slightly since it left the factory. The interior is now in my dads other halfs mini, the engine has long since give up. The paintwork is a different colour (i actually quite like the silver but it was blue when i got it!) and the only remaining original part i have is the steering wheel and thats hung up in the garage!

hi there,
thanx for all the welcomes..
i am really interested in finding an answer to the question what is so unfamous about the mini25... so if anyone of you has something in mind...
@CharlieBrown: yep, i found this site too by googling. in comparison to the other mini annual special edition sites i found it very poor. as well as there are only two 25 registered, even one is of the websites owner...
worst bit: you receive only delivery failure notices if you try to register via e-mail...
but to be fair: you can download the original brochure for the model at the site...
@Brawlyrox: tell all the other 25ers to register here. i am really wanting to get in touch with other owners. do i have to come to cornwall first to meet people?? :cheese:
what happened to your 25? didn't like it?
@minicooperman: yes, and i'm still visiting it... will take a look there after that post. made the same post questioning for other owners over there... we will see what happens...
@DAVEnCLAIRE: greetings to your mate. get him over here to get in touch. but sorry i don't need one to buy. my interest is only on informal purposes. thank you...
@philster: it honours you that you kept at least the original steering wheel... :grin:
i heard a lot of 25's being modified and resprayed in a way that you won't notice that it was a 25 in former times... the silver colour is great, indeed, although it was in such a bad quality that it got aggressive to the structure of most models, resulting in fast-corrosion...
to me it doesn't really matter if your car is original as long as you know what you're sitting in... :cool:
nice to have met you all
