I'd like to thank this guy heaps.

When my Mini broke down this morning on the fwy with a fuel problem, as in it didn't have any. :oops:

This guy and his Mini not only stopped to help but then proceeded to drive me to the nearest petrol station (took a while to find) and then drive me back to my mini with a jerry can. This took around 30 minutes and no doubt made this guy late for work as well.

What a legend..

If you're on Ausmini, thanks heaps...
Especially as RACV told me they only tow once you're on the freeway.

Hi Dave,
It's my personal import, kinda bought it with the possibility of bringing it over. When the removalist told me there was enough space in the container because we were dumping old furniture, that was that !! :D
I was looking forward to going on Rodney's run but got crook. Maybe next time.
Still can't believe the size of the Mini scene here, love it.
Would'nt mind coming over to your part of the world for a look see, no cruizes goin on at the moment :)
