omg this thing is AWESOME!

Full disclosure, i'm 385lbs and tall. up until this point i've only driven pickup trucks and suv's. I owned a honda civic once, but we don't talk about that.

i've never really been comfortable in any small car, but I fit in this mini, and that makes me happy.

This is me leaning on the hood of my 64 nova. That's my Dakota in the background.



I live just south of Birmingham Alabama, we have a lot of fun roads around here, I've owned motorcycles for 11 years so i'm used to fun in the corners, but this Mini has me considering selling my bikes to buy suspension upgrades.



Interestingly, this is my car in 2013 before the Previous owner to me picked it up at a ford dealer in Bessemer, I've checked the vin from the video, it's the same car years ago. and it looks identical today.


I'm looking forward to learning a ton about this Mini and about German made cars. i've only worked on a BMW E30 once before and it was really neat.
