Hi there

 

I've purchased my first classic car, a 1991 Rover Mini. Don't have much idea what I'm doing but I'm sure it'll be a fun journey  :lol:

Yes it certainly is a lovely Mainstream Cooper, as until last week it was mine, as I sold it to Miles, who has promised to look after it!

 

Here's some better photos, from the ad, which I'm sure Miles won't mind me posting.

 

Hi Miles and welcome to the forum!

Welcome.

That is sure a nice looking Mini. I always wanted a black one, had a maroon one 30 years ago now I have a Red one. Take care of it and drive it lots, that will bring a smile to your face.

Congratulations.
