Vegasdan gets $ on totalled 04 S

This might be my last post. As I wrote a couple weeks ago, my 04 S "Enery" was totalled in a accident. I'm progressing as far as my injuries, but-alas, Enery is gone forever. The insurance company settled on the property damage an gave me more than I paid for him 3 years ago (46000 miles). The bad news is, I just couldn't replace him with another MINI. I really liked that car, but inorder to replace him I'd have to mod the new one to match and that's just not possible with an 07. I just bought-GASP-an Audi A3. Sorry all. Dan

What, no more new MINIs on the lot in NV or CA?
Enjoy the new car, and don't be afraid to drop by AMVIV IV - just park around the corner.

The Vegas dealership has a bunch of MINIs on the lot, but I think Dan had a discontinued color (EB from memory).
