I just called ASK MINI and got my VIN# and found out MY Mini was started at 07:49. Maybe I'll have it in a month. Now I'm more excited...

My MINI lies over the ocean

Please bring home my MINI to me
To me.
Please bring back my MINI to me.

So far, I think the hardest part is waiting for my MINI to get to the USA. Shes not quite half-way across about now. Production part was fast.

Mine finished production yesterday and is waiting on a boat. My dealer said sometimes they can sit there for a week. My deal was that I had to have it before Memorial Day weekend for a backroad blast from Atlanta to Indy.

The wait is killing me sinceI am tired of fixing my 1980 Volvo and it's sitting in my drive right were I pushed it after it died and wouldn't start agian. I might have broken the flywheel or the timing belt. I am just tired of fixing it. :smile: :smile:

Gotta love the old Volvos. My 1986 was a solid ride but it is having more and more little issues that are ato be expected. pumps and seals eventually go, hoses degrade... its just part of age

In any case, I dont care to think of the beating that my younger brothers have given it in my year away!

I just love my 240 Volvo I have had alot of fun in it. It out lasted my first marriage. Took me all over the US, Washinton to Jersey to South Carolina. Time has just got to it It needs a new engine but then the engine would be worth more than the car. It's time to move on :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:
