Yair Nads, good luck with both the money & the mini.

Hi All,

Niall from Kew,Vic.Have always loved european 4's but fell in love with the minis after seeing the original italian job in my youth (I know, cliched!). After wanting a mini for years found a great little number in a garage in mentone after looking at a few not so healthy ones. It is a very standard 78 Clubman, had only 50,000 on the clock when I bought it. The lady had owned it since new and gave it a hug before I took it away. Have loved owning it but now wanting to hand it on to someone who will appreciate it and look after it as I don't really have the time nowadays. Hoping to get in a cruise or two with people from the forum before someone buys it. Have some pics (and the ad) online at http://www.southridgesolutions.com/mini/

Might get back to the world of mini in a few years, but probably as a second car. Would love to get a mini k van. I play bass guitar and getting the amp and bass in the car is a bit of joke at present. Bit worried about the interior.

All the best,

Niall[/url]

Hi I'm Rocco

I am a new member and thought it would be a good idea to join this forum.

I own a 1969 Morris Cooper S, I have had it for 4 years now, before that I used to own a 67 Deluxe

My website is:

www.users.bigpond.com/j_staltari

P.S. I'm chasing a tin tank clutch master cylinder, it doesnt matter what condition it is,as I will be reconditioning it.

Hi Rocco, welcome to ausmini!
That is an excellent looking car you have there. How long have you had it?
I like your comment about clubmans too, but don't go saying that round here
too much, OK?

what did Rocco say about clubmans?!!!?!!?!
something nice i'm assmuing

and welcome rocco!

Im a big fan of all mini's, old or new. Any mini is a good mini. Roundie, Clubbie or Beamer.

I did that website about 3 years ago and haven't edited since. My green cooper s still looks the same but now I have chrome mesh headlight guards fitted and changed to the amber indicator lenses and fitted a Smiths 8000 rpm tacho.

I have owned this mini for around 4 years now.

Thanks for the warm welcome

Roc

As the newest member to the forum, I decided to introduce myself. I'm a currently a non-mini owner, and due to lack of time and garage space considering getting a restored Mini K or similar type of round nose. I don't want the responsibility of being a custodian of a Cooper, and want a fun car not a commuter.

My plans are to get a good sensibly modified K, spoil it, and hang onto it, so if you are looking for a good home for your baby feel free to let me know.

My membership for the NSW mini club will be in the post on Monday, and I look forward to learning from and bantering with you guys.

well how much do you need?

The riceburner / family mover/ work mobile will take up all the room, leavig nuthin for the mini. Regardless, I intend to get an approriate cover / rust preventer and security measures to look after the brick.
