I notice alot of members use "other cars" for there daily drivers, how many of you actualy use your mini as one? I use my 78' Clubby as one and so far it hasn't let me down, anyone else?

i do and have done so since i ever had one.
dont see the point spending over $12.000 on a mini and not driving it and enjoying it just as long as you can afford to keep it maintained and up to scratch
