This is a very emotional post for me.. i always refer to my Mini as the "grandpa's Mini". Long story sort, this man raised me, he's in a way my father. He got me into cars, trucks and Minis sharing his stories back from the day he was a trucker! His first and only car an 850 Mini that was left to me.. At the moment he's hospitalized suffering dementia. Actually he has a half functioning brain regarding memory. But two things he remembers very well : Me and his Mini. I finally made it and fixed the car and payed a visit to the clinic today.. he wouldn't stop crying...

thanks gramps!! thanks for introducing me to the best car in the world!!

Mini on!
