Nice to meet you Amy finally!!!!
I did want to get over and get a closer look at Shelly. She looks amazing. Maybe next time!!!

Thank you Derfinn it was lovely to meet you too. I must say I fell in love with your countryman lovely lovely car

[Coopman]

Lovely colour. Silver is my favourite colour in the mini actually. Check out this silvercooper like yours on donedeal. Whoever owns this car has done a fantastic job on it.

Oh yes that's an absolute beauty, I love the JCW body kit and spots. If I had a bit more €€€ shelly would look like that we will get there soon

@mini87 The trick is not to spend too much on any one mini and use that mini to buy more minis :P. You should keep an eye out daily for used parts.

[mini87]

I will keep that in mind Coopman, I am finding it difficult to monitor the spending on her though!

Shelly had her annual health check in Kearys yesterday and got a clean bill of health again, just needs a set of wiper blades! Love my little MINI, 9 years old and still perfect

I'm too scared to service my car. One of the windows stopped working the other day and the central locking is dodgy on one door. Doing some cosmetic stuff first before i take the plunge to have her serviced because its going to be costy.

Hi Coopman, those are both very common problems in MINIs; I had one of my door locks replaced a few months back by Ger O'Leary and the regulator on one of my windows goes on the blink occasionally but thats on the back burner until after holidays.

New spots, thanks Ger

Very cute!!

[Derfinn]

Looks the business!

Said goodbye to Shelly last week, hope her new owner enjoys owning her as much as I did.
