I'm working on it, initial price on the salvage wreck is $6100. I've been told that is not negotiable, so we'll see. It would cost at least 10k to restore the car to back to drivable. Not sure how well the car would come out, or how much it would be worth after that. Salvaged Mini's arn't exacty selling for a fortune .

I pull up to client's offices and residences and they almost always start a conversation about how cool the MINI is and how much fun it is to drive! Stay true to yourself.

Like I said, if I could have kept, repaired, or even replaced my mini with something comparable I would have. Then again, someone already mentioned, why settle for something with 60+ less HP just to say I have a mini.
