That's right, not me, my mini turns 40 this month! August 1969. I have been so busy at work I forgot to tell everyone and have a mini celebration!

She's going strong for a 40yr old car 8) In the immortal words of Yoda "When you 800yrs old, how good you look hmm?"

And you're a bit early re: Yoda too.

Drag races, out the front of your house.

Let's do it!

You're all a bunch of comedians the lot of ya!

She's been a very reliable car of late. The only problems I've had in the past year has been a new brake M/C (the old one was still OK but the tin screw on cap thing broke off literally...), and problems with indicators (I blame Lucas for that).

Other than that she's been a great most days drive!

I haven't washed and waxed her in over a year :oops: , I think it's time for it this weekend
