Hi Stephano.

Your Clasic Mini sounds like it is a lot of fun. If you have any questions you will probably find the Clasic Mini Talk the most useful.

Have fun and welcome to NAM!

My girl is from Germany, she lives in Munchen and I leave the Mini to her for the moment, so you can see german plates (Tina Rauner 1975)!
We bought the Mini in ebay in German this January, and we are always modifying it!

Nice looking mini. Be sure to visit the classic forum and introduce yourself there too, as this forum is more for the newer MINIs.

Either way, Congratulations and Happy Motoring.

Welcome to the forum!

I really like your car. Looks like you have taken care of it and done some nice mods on it.

Where in Italy do you live? My brother lives in Piacenza and we will be visiting him in February. We are really looking forward to exploring your country.

Thanx Thanx for greetings to everyone! I write from Perugia (Umbria) where I study, but I'm from Soverato, a nice place on the sea in Calabria! My Mini (now I see the difference with MINI, but in Italy it doesn't exists), is a cult object for me and my girl, we always loved Mini and finally the last January we bought our love! Be sure, we take extreme care of it (but this doesn't mean that we don't push the gas always, however!!! )
