Mini ownership in Tx

Hey guys new to the forum. I am currently looking into getting a mini (proper one not what the Germans consider mini lol) and wondering if anyone can shed some light on owning one in Tx.

My first car was a 1995 Rover mini sidewalk LE when i was in scotland. 11 years later i finally talked my wife into buying one in truck country and have found a lot in cali and florida. Just wondering what some of your experiences are/were with your purchases And ownership.

Thanks guys
Troy

Thanks AG. I went and got it anyway :-) 1972 with a 1380cc engine. Inspection was dead simple and only need to do tax title and registration.

I saw it got sold and was wondering if that was you that bought it. Glad it went to an owner who will appreciate it.

I bought mine from wirewheels in Fl. I saw your original reply after the fact. Did the one in Plano sell as well?
