Im Back after 2 plus years

Well in October 2016 I sold Peppermint Pattie to a solider he had looked at MINI's and considered ours. I wasn't driving her much and my job hours had slowed down, so I let her go....I had missed her since I sold her, she was a 2011 RARE S as she has the JCW Tuning Kit, Full AERO kit, Lowering springs, and JCW shift light among other pieces.....FAST FORWARD to last month I was looking for a vehicle for my daily commute.....The solider I sold it to messages me on FB and says he is PC'ing at the end of the year to Hawaii and bought a 2019 KIA Stinger, but still has my PP2 and wants to know if I wanted her back....Heck yeah...After 25 months away, she is back at our house....She has a few more miles on her and needs a new sticker set and she will be good as new........I sure did miss her, but it is like she never left.

That is awesome. I still regret selling my 2007 years ago and would have jumped at the chance to get it back. I bet you won’t part with it again. Ha
Enjoy it, it looks awesome.
