    Hello ,

    I'm a rather old Mini enthusiast, I was born when the original Mini was launched in 1959 ( actually just before) .:Thumbsup:
    I own 2 old-timer mini's 1977 and 1976. :fingerscrossed:
    I'm planning on getting a new one later in the year. :devil:

    Mini, it's not just a car it's a lifetyle!

    Welcome! Love Antwerp! Visited twice in the last 3yrs & hope to visit again & again & again!!!
    Simple advice: If you're into DIY mods & maintenance, find yourself a well cared for, low mile 05-06 R53 or GP1. To many, it's the purest form of the new MINI. You won't regret it! (Apologies to 2nd gen & soon, 3rd gen guys).

    Welcome to M/A! Your location makes me think of the movie Snatch - "What do I know about diamonds? Don't they come from Antwerp?"

    Welcome to MA! I've got a '12 MCS and love it, best thing I did in forever. I've been to Europe a few times and once worked with a young Motörhead from Antwerp who works at Reintjes. Good folks, and these are great cars!
