Hello my name is Pete! I previously owned 2 A4s. Sold the one and soon after wrecked the other. I got my current car now (2001 Cooper) in a pinch about 12 hours after I wrecked the Audi. I have since grown to love Minis, and I only had a mostly stock (I put an exhaust and intake on) base 5 speed! After 6 months the lil guy ain't cutting it anymore so I have been on the prowl for a nice JCW. I finally found what I thought was a perfect, classic Mini and pending a visual inspection tomorrow I will be driving it home! Maybe some of you have seen the car before. It's from Florida originally. Here's the eBay auction. Let me know what you guys think...

Looks like a nice car. I assume by now you are a JCW owner.
Welcome to the club. Have fun.
