Idea 1st Gen R50 R53 Most liked posts in thread: Too much fun to sell

Keep yours.

I have 3 MINIS..a rare R50 CVT [very slightly modded], an R53 MCSa [not modded at all...wife's car], and my daily driver, an R53a modded. The first two have over 105,000 miles each, while my daily driver [onetime track car and Dragon Slayer] has over 179,000 miles on it and I plan to take it over 200,000 miles before I die.

I don't mind being old so much [78]...just wish I could walk better and my recent surgery has not helped a helluva lot, either. I've recovered, and my doctor gave me permission to drive again, so I do it because my life isn't worth living without being able to drive a my MINIs. Unfortunately, my wife is 80 now but cancer free and doesn't want to drive her R53a anymore, so I'm selling it to a friend.

 

Hang in there Jeff. Cars don't like just sitting not good for them, same goes for us old guys. Gotta keep moving.

 

Truer words have never been spoken.

 

Safety first and foremost

 

Gotcha, but, I drive all 3 MINIs all the time..just not on the same days or at the same time.

 

You better have a good reason.
