Small world
So this weekend… I was selling a set of 12 inch wheels for an old mini, I have a 67 and I decided to go back to 10 inch wheels.
I found a buyer than was interested in my wheels through this site and we had planed to meet so she could pick up the wheels. I had no clue who this person was or what Mini they drove. The only thing we new about each other is that I had a set of 12’s that would fit her car.
And this is what she pulled up in:

Hah! Sweet. Hopefully you two can motor together, operating as liaisons to bridge the gap between the old Mini and the new MINI.
