Welcome to the forum. What an impressive fleet of Mini/MINIs. I hope you actively participate in the forum. I would bet that you will have a lot to contribute.
Is the difference between Mini and MINI that Mini was the original and MINI are the current BMW versions? |

There are a lot of people (I won't call them enthusiasts) who own Minis that insist on calling the MINI a BINI, a name I hate with a passion. I hope to be able to share my experiences with you all both good and bad including if its allowed reports on the shows I go to during the summer months. |

Hi and welcome to the NAM family!
I am a MINI Maniac and bought one years ago, then started to collect them, then started to buy and sell them! I love these little street monsters! You have a fine fleet, that any Mini/MINI owner, would be proud to own! Congrats to you and your fine fleet! |
Lands End to John O' Groats Charity Run sounds like a blast! I've been to John O'Groats, but never Lands End.

I've done it 3 times in total the first time was in my brother classic with a 1340 engine and 5 speed straight cut box great on the twist stuff but no fun for 9 hours on the motorway home form Inverness, the 2nd time was in my Green classic and then in the Countryman which was fun and far more comfy but it didn't sound as good!:lol: |
Ok, I am totally jealous!! That is an awesome collection. |
Welcome and awesome collection.

Hello there!
Really nice motors all, but I absolutely love the Almond Green/Snowberry White car --- a rare bird too yes? Not too many of those runnin' around. I've always lusted after a classic Mini, but over here they're rather expensive and difficult to find in LHD which I prefer, so the next best thing was getting a 2006 JCW and after only one month I'm deeply in love with total enthusiasm, it is quite simply a brilliant automobile. |

Sadly it's not an original 60's Downton (to me the holy grail of Minis) but it's still a special little car. |
