The mini is a young person car, these people dont no what a good car is like

As long as it is a new car thats all that matters

Has people on this forum seen the Nissan juke what a ugly car, there must make these for the blind people

I think today car manufactuars make cars as a fashion accessery targeted at young people

any comments on this.

Yep. With you on that horrible Junk thing. Finally, something that makes the Fiat Multipla look pretty.

I can't think of a new car (within reason) that I'd want these days.

PMSL. That was actually a genuine typing error. Freudian slip?

dont fit into them but that is ugly

What a way to ruin a perfectly good car. I doubt it's worth more than pocket change in that state TBH, although if it were unmolested it would be fetch the £2k BIN any day, even with some rot

I'm looking forward to getting our mini into the unit so I can start stripping it down. It needs a little work (possibly a huge understatement ) but when I'm finished I plan to have what is pretty much a brand spanking car to play with and eventually sell on. I reckon the re-build will set me in at under £3k total, including some labour charges where needed, and wouldn't be selling it for any less than about £5k when done, hopefully more as the market for decent, unmolested Mini Cooper S cars is getting stronger every day

We'll see what happens but I hope to be able to document the re-build when I do it

You got a Mini then Paul? I thought you had a Morris 1000, don't know where I got that from....

Well... SWMBO has, but what's hers is mine Until I've finished rebuilding it when I expect it will become hers again

Yep, a 1993 Mini Cooper S with a 1380 Hi-Torque engine as the previous owner had the engine rebuilt about 5k before it came off the road I'm looking forward to getting my teeth into it and hope I'll be able to soon

Why is the Mini a young persons car?

I think that Only the Range Rover has taken over from the Mini as a fashion accessory, in the 60' anyone who was anyone had a Mini - young and old, the Mini crossed over all class boundaries.......

Sorry to disagree with you.....

[PhilRich]

Yep, that's definately 'Unique' alright, & thank God for that!!!!

Nissan have made a spelling mistake with the Juke. It should have been an "O" not the "U" in the name

Past my test in a minivan with a long wobbly gear stick
Then went on to drive a Standard Atlas van
I used to change gear with the stick cradled in my left elbow
Minis blew our minds and busted the Continentals minds to Hell
The Transverse layout was an absolute revolution
Ah those were  the the days
