If anyone knows of someone looking for a well-loved MINI, I know of one for sale...don't worry, it's not mine.

Here's an email I received:

Several weeks ago you approached me outside of Whispering Vines with one of your Sierra NV MINI cards. I was driving an electric blue MINI. Unfortunately, I am selling my MINI, but thought I would see if you know of anyone looking for a used one as a starter. Mine is a 2002 Cooper S, 41k miles, black leather interior, electric blue w/white roof and mirrors. It is in really good condition and I have a couple of pictures I can email if you know of anyone who is interested.


So, if anyone knows of anyone who's interested, let me know and I'll pass it a long to the owner.

 

Gawd, it's almost like abandoning one of your children at the bus station. I couldn't do it. I'll live in my MINI before I have to sell it.

 

Hey Rob? You know if you are living in your mini the glove box opened makes a very nice little table with two drink holders in it.The back seats fold down and walla.........I agree but sometimes life just throws out tough decisions. This is like my 100th car so I'm stopping now. The mini is my last vehicle. I plan on retiring in mine. Remember our up coming charity run Aug 19 in Carson City and then of course the Tahoe REME run Sept.1-4. Hope to see you at either. Lisa

 

Even though I only had my 2003 MC a few months and was trading up to a NICER S Model...I had bad feelings about letting it go....ALL BETTER NOW!

Funny, I have had lots of cars from Hondas to Audi's to porsches...Only with the Porsche 911SC (which I had for 10 yrs...) did I feel that way! Heck...when my time comes...maybe I will be buried in it!

 

Hee hee... Thanks for the MINI lifestyle tips, Lisa. I also heard that folding a rear seat down makes a great ironing board/bar.

I'll be at the Sunday of the Tahoe Mountain Tour, see ya there!
