Here it is! As my nickname suggests, my first love is my Ducati but I also love my Mini (Cooper R56 1.6 120hp 2008). I bought it from my grandfather because somebody told him that it's better if he looks for a less powerfull car..he's 88 years old :D

You're definitely right!
I live on the Como Lake right on the Swiss border so it's plenty of Alpine passes in less than an hour from here.

I love that northern area of Italy. I spent time in Stresa and really enjoyed it. Beautiful MINI.
