    Call me mad, old, or just nostalgic, I just bought a 1994 Mini Cooper! One owner from new, all original, and 27000 original kms. It's a 35th Anniversary edition, just 200 made of these, and has a (!) Leather interior and a full length electric fabric sunroof. Bought in the UK, and LHD, so will be coming to Canada later this year.

    So far, it's in the south of France, lots of winding roads here, and every corner becomes a lot of fun!

    Memories of miniskirts, swinging 60s-70s, and great music.... Nice to feel younger again! Just kidding.

    Anyone else got one?

    Owned one while I lived in the UK.
    Brilliant little car, a hoot to drive.

    Also my first car, it seemed to be a requirement in the UK when I was a kid that you learned to drive in a Mini.

    My first was an 850cc, then a 1000cc and ultimately I bought a 1275GT which rotted out from under me.

    You'll not have more fun at 30mph than in a mini.

    I've started restoring my first car, a 1971 Mini Cooper Mk3. I'm 34 yrs old and that was my first car that i've bought back in 2002. There are a lot of things to be done but i believe that it will come along nicely.

    The car on the background is the next one project. My father's genuine BMW 2002 tii.

    Enjoy!
