I had many Minis and many girls, loved em all (in different ways) when I was young (and stupid!) Had some shockers and had some awesome ones I shouldn't have let get away. Went away from Mini's for many years and went the way of a new MINI.
I wasn't happy and the girl I was with, we decided to get a Mini. Found out I loved the car more than the girl, so she was gone (I mean the girlfriend gone). The next girl was special but then she told me she preferred the new MINI but didn't really like the old Mini. Need less to say it wasn't long before she had to take a one way walk out the door.
I then got my next two loves within a couple of weeks of each other. Got the girl and brought her home and the got my project Mini and brought it to the workshop. I have had both for around a year and a half and it's looking serious. Moved in with the girlfriend and stripped the Mini back for a full paint job.
My partner refers to the Mini as my 'other' girlfriend. She knows that I am a happy man if I get to fool around and spend my money buying special things. A man should have a partner, work hard, enjoy life and have a project car.

Wow, THE Mikey.

Welcome back!!

Haha so I see why you had so many cars. Being in a relationship with another guy it would be twice as bad. Welcome back all the same mate.

Can't wait to see the pictures of your next mini.
Geez, I think I would have to live in a shed if I had a partner who was male, otherwise we would never see each other.
