G'day everyone, Just as a matter of interest and possibly salvation.....I'd love to hear some creative reasons etc that you shouldn't get rid of the steaming pile of 50 yr old mini/parts/junk that makes her house look untidy etc. I'm sure there's some past experiences to be tapped into, or if you've never had the privilege of living with a partner who is unappreciative of your interests, please feel free to be creative! |

I tell my better half if I'm not tinkering with stuff in the garage I'll only start tinkering with stuff inside the house. Plus once in a while I start talking about re-doing the bathroom that's usually enough to get her pushing me back out into the garage. |

I find the hard part is explaining to toddlers who and why someone is picking me up to take me to work today and what/when/who/how the "Mini Car" got broken again |

It only takes you 2 mins to undo 2 wing nuts on the passengers seat and you can take her parking |

My two kids will complain if we go in the Dunnydore, its the Mini, (Bimi as locky says) or tears. Not from the jokes either. |

My 44yo Mini is appreciating in value, where your 4yo Ford Fiesta is depreciating.. in fact the Mini is now insured for $1K more than yours is.
