    I'm hoping someone finally shows up with one of my old MINIs at breakfast, one of these days.

    My wife called me an idiot for buying a MINI too, she wanted me to by a 'vette.

    I asked her what's worse, being an idiot, or marrying one?

    It was a rhetorical question, but it didn't stop her from answering it anyway.

    As you continue to purchase MINIs the odds of this increase :donut1::beer

    I think it would be easier to put a MINI engine in the Mustang. :wink:

    My wife thinks I am an idiot for other reasons but my car is not one of them.

    She like it, but does not like to ride in it. :rolleyes:

    No comment on what his wife thinks of him. :wink:
    Yep he is keeping the local used car dealers in business. No idea what the current ride is.
