Did I have my chance? Did I waste my opportunity? Was I so ignorant?
And what, o who, am I now?
I had a mini. 1981 clubman estate (4 cyl, 1.0l) I was young and... The mini wasn't only mine. The other owner, than, bought another car. I was too young to understand what I was given to m hands... Second problem to the car and I gave up. I looken for a new car. A little, tiny, new car.
3 cyl, 0.8l and... Korean. Ok... After a couple of year... I saw the light. I think that the street in front my house lack of something. A guess: a mini.
And I think it's right.
As you know, in Italy it's a mess with all the taxes, insurance, this and that. But there is sort of backdoor: pre 86.
20 years old. 130 euros per year in taxes and insurance. It's good enough.
And then: I need a mini. But not something too much particular.
A mini... So I can work with it, having fun and also something to do in my free time, that isn't much at the moment, but I don't care, I'm going to find my time, is she need me.
I tell you what: not to particular also because I would like to avoid all the problems linked with the original style of the mini, or the heritage system of facts. Work on it, plat with it and give her the beautyness she need and deserve, ya know.
Round nose, eye angel, short cut... 10" alloy... Matter of time!
The first thing is: where find a mini?
