    Sorry to see this happen, Jeremy. :cryin: I guess all good things must come to an end, though. I'll miss seeing you, Miniclo, Chad, Ryephile, Sndwave, Koolmini and others all in a pack...blasting thru the Dragon...as if the Devil himself was chasing you!

    Yeah, it's sad to see it go, but I'm sure it will find a good home and be treated well by its next owner. I'll still do the dragon in the future, gonna try to go there next October if I have a new car by then.

    And thanks, Mike. :)

    Wow. Parting with Sprog II.

    Wow.

    And those forum names. I remember them from bygone days.

    The cycle of life I guess.

    Wow.

    That is a fantastic value for mods listed, not to mention just being a bad ass MINI.

    Sorry for your loss, but GLWS!

    Always loved the Welshman car, glad you kept it too. Such a great color!

    And thanks Tat, I probably have over $40k in the car from when it was new, so I like to think I'm asking a fair price.

    Thanks, Jeremy. Yeah, that Silk Green Welsh MINI is one of a kind, with its emerald interior, green/black leather seating, and white wheels/mirrors/sunroof surround. I'd drive it more, but it's got that CVT which I DO NOT want to replace anytime soon, if ever. So now, I just mainly take it to shows...although it went Dragonslaying at MOTD '09 [old habits die hard, ya know].

    Oy, I can't imagine how much one of those CVT's costs to replace! Good idea to keep it nice, 'cos you know that will be a collector car in 20 years, especially with the rare color schemes!

    Less than 2 days left on my auction. Crossing fingers. Reserve is $12,000, if any of you are bidding on it and wanted to know.

    I've never had a problem with the MC and its CVT, and pretty much drove it hard when I first got it. I took it to the Dragon in '04 when I first met you, and it's been there a few times since, as well as to a coupla Phil Wicks 2-day HPDEs. However, now that I know of the problems CVTs have, I don't do much twisty driving in it anymore. The MCSa is for that...:lol:

    The lighter weight of the Coopers gave them an advantage on the twisties at least.
