Hi everybody. After years of saying "I want a classic mini" I finally took the plunge and bought myself a 1990 Studio 2. I spent a few months on here looking at everyone's beautiful (and varied) cars and it drove me to dig into the savings. After some initial problems with the fuel float cylinder followed by a few loud backfires breakdown of the coil she's running like an absolute beauty. A lot more spritely than I was expecting the pokey little 998 to be. I'll get around to posting some pics in show n' shine when I work out how to do it haha.

Hi, I have four Mini's at the moment, having laid off for 25 years or so. 

Previously had a 970S & a 1275GT as a kid.

Clearly I'm having a mid life crisis....

Hi! I have a mini in south america, Argentina. It´s a Mk4 1980 Austin Mini with 13 inch tires, 4 discs, 1275 (+0,30 pistons, 123 aldon electronics, Bosch ignition and a new hif44). Unfortunately, due to our high temperatures in this early year I cannot drive it all day but it is used once a week. Love my car and would love to have the opportunity to open a mini shop in Argentina.
