- History:
- I bought this, my first MINI, used in August 2012. Was looking for economical commute cars, and didn't think I could even afford a MINI despite lusting after them since they re-debuted in the US. It might be only a stock, base hardtop, but I smile every time I get inside and drive away. In my many years of driving, I've never enjoyed a car more—ever. BTW, his name is Pretje, which is a Dutch word that, loosely translated, means "small bit of fun." He is small—but the fun certainly isn't.
