Best Internet Source for Classic MINI Info.??
I'm really wanting to learn more about the Classic MINI's such as the variations, how they differ from year to year, what the 80s and 90s models are like, etc. Could someone please suggest a link that would be a great crash course for me on the Classics, what years are the best to look for if I were to buy one, what issues I should be aware of if I buy one, etc. etc.
I just don't know where to start. Any help would be appreciated. THANKS!

Theres some history here http://austin-rover.co.uk/
You want to look out for rust, everything else can be dealt with pretty easily with a little time and money. Theres that buyers guide at the top of the forum that should help.
You need to come to terms with what you want it for, speed,track, sunday driver, etc.
You also should determine what you are willing to spend. It's almost always cheaper in the long run to buy a nice one than to buy a project. If your budget is low at the moment, you could spend 2 years fixing a cheap one or you could spend 2 years saving for a nice one. Same result in the end but one route requires alot of work. Just some things to think about.

If money was no object, I would go here and have one custom built and shipped to the USA. http://www.plmini.com/ex.htm
In fact, I'm thinking that my next Mini I will have done by them.
