A New Mini Adventure

Hey,


Before we get started, let me introduce myself. My name is Pete, a 26 year from England, UK. I have many passions in life, from Computers, movies and travelling. Growing up I was never really that interested in Cars, they tended to bore the hell out me. As I grew older and started and learn to drive my interest in Cars gradually grew.

Car History

My first car was a really old Vauxhall Cavalier which I owned for around three months before being told it was actually not road worthy! My second was a 2004 Ford Focus. While the Focus was a good car that got me from A to B, there was nothing that special about it and I grew bored of it quickly and just after one year, I sold it. I wanted a Car that appealed to me so I decided to take a look around and thats when I came across the Mini.

Design Icon

I have a thing for retro practical design. So when I looked at some of the classic cars that have made a resurgence over the past decade of so ( like the VW Beetle) the new Mini looked very tempting. I then spent a few months researching and reading about the new Mini and the more I read the more I realised that the car was for me. Cute retro looks, fantastic modern update and design and a pleasure to drive. The Mini was for me!

My first Mini Adventure

My first Mini was a 2001 Black and White cooper. While I loved it, it was getting old and I wanted to take my Mini adventure to new heights, a car I can call my own and keep for a good number of years.
