Hi everyone!! My name is William, 23 years old (as of Saturday the 12th) and "first" time MINI owner. Now I say "first" very loosely. You see, my first MINI was a 2021 Oxford edition, PepperWhite four door hardtop. It was BEAUTIFUL I loved that car. However, I was turning once to go and get gas, granted I had a green light, and a girl ran a red light doing 70 mph totaling my MINI that I had for barely two weeks. I just hit 2,000 miles. It literally saved my life, minus the broken wrist and dislocated fracture that I have. However the bright side of this all is being that I now have a new 2022 MINI. Black, two door, Iconic trim, with the multi-tone roof, hence the name Sylvester Two-Tone.
In a way, I look at this accident thinking, "maybe the universe was telling me I bought the wrong MINI first..." because I feel so connected to my MINI and I LOVE it so so much.
I've been a huge MINI fan for years. I remember seeing my first MINI and just being in awe of the design and story. So with all that, I love MINI's and would be happy to meet up with you guys soon!!!
