Well, since the subject has turned to Mini Coopers, I suppose I can sneak in
this mention without being any more off-topic...


I have two original (not BMW) Mini's for sale privately, as well as an
aircooled 2-cylinder Fiat 500L.  (I'd like to sell the Fiat pretty quickly
and would take a reasonable offer.)


European micro-cars are a hobby of mine.  I drive an '74 Innocenti Mini
Cooper 1300 Export (an Italian made Cooper) and another Fiat 500L regularly,
saving the Westy for times when I need the space or the camping gear.  Both
cars are about the same size but couldn't possibly be more different!
