Guys and Gals, Slidey has just been picked up and is off to his new home - SOLD.

I won't deny that the whole experience of Mini ownership did not turn out anything what i wanted it to, it has cost me many thousands of dollars, a 10yr friendship and my sanity. I'm still very bitter about how it all turned out and don't know if i could ever bring myself to do it again.

But.......

This aspect (the forum and all the friends i have made and met) has been a massively positive thing, if only the ownership was as positive.

To all the regulars i have spoken to frequently from down south...... Anton, Gaf, Makka, Doc, 13secmini, Duc, Big willy Styles, Cody, Fruity, Poeee and and most importantly The Camel i thank you for you encouragement, kind words and funny comments.

To the QLD crew - JC, Danidad (Jeff thanks so much for your constant offers of help), Nermil, Zizzle, NAV, Rising Star, Roundy, The Miniman Matt Read and 998 Clubman............ i'll see you around the traps.............

See you all later, good luck with all the current and future projects and may the Mighty Slidey see his resurrection in the future...........

The End

Sorry to see you go, and i hope that your entusiasm for the mighty mini will sometime come back and we will see you about the traps again. May you have a great life if we don't see you again.:wink:

Cheers

Aaron

All the best Steve. Don't assume the Mini bug won't bite you again, `coz I guarantee it will!
Hope we get to see Slidey about with his new owner. :wink:

Sad to see a Mini dream that wasnt to be.

Goodluck in the future and hopefully you'll find a car that as good to you as you are to it.

Keep the Mini dream alive and keep searching for the right one!!! You can live without a Mini in the garage ;)....i couldnt..
