To those of you that mocked my dirty car...you can suck it. I got it detailed in October and it's still clean from that. Ahhh, the joys of having 3 cars. Granted, I've been especially careful since it is for sale, but I must say NOT parking in the TARC lot (read, "gravel") on a daily basis has been huge. Of course, never seeing rain doesn't hurt...

I admit, this goes against my own view that MINIs are meant to be driven...daily. =) But it is kinda cool having a super clean car for sunny weekends.

For those wondering, I am having second thoughts about selling. My kids have gotten WAY into cars in the past few months, and while it's not a Ferrari or M5, they'll take it when the alternative is a garage of an Accord and Maxima. Fortunately, the extreme lack of interest + no hurry to sell + list-till-it-sells-on-autotrader means it's all good, I can keep it and the decision can continue to get deferred.

 

I agree.

 

Sorry you haven't been able to sell the car, but since you aren't hurting for money, I'm glad you are still part of the "family".

 

And I thought you guys got a Minivan!
