Hi, we have a 1998 Rover mpi in tahiti blue. Its only done 34k and is totally standard. Looks and drives superb! It's my first mini but my wife had a city before we met. I love the way you can flash and wave at other mini drivers! Trying to post a picture here but it somehow won't let me. Can anyone help?
