Welcome to NAM and your future MINI ownership. Are you going with a MINI or trying to find a MINI Classic?

Enjoy NAM.

Hi Mary. I think I've seen you before. Assuming that was you in one of the photos your sister posted in the clown car thread. Welcome to NAM and good luck on your search for a Mini.

i just bought a mini two days ago, and the one i ended up with was listed on autotraders (as well as like every other site haha). there are quite a few on there, also (although risky) ebay has a few for good prices. definatly dont rush into it, wait for the perfect mini =)

Doesn't sound too bad - considering the 73K miles on it. I would run the VIN number though - through Car Fax....

Certified Mini Thru a dealer or CarMax. At least you know a mechanic has gone over the vehicle, and it's not salvage.

ok i called the lady selling it and she says there is nothing wrong with it and the reason she is selling it is because she got a new mercedes for her birthday and she cant drive two cars. she also said someone should be calling her later tonight or early tomorrow to let her know if they want it or not and if they dont she is going to call me and let me know. im excited that it isnt sold but im not cause it might be sold. but i found another mini on auto trader for 11,500 but no pics so i dont know about that one. sorry about the long post.
