I've always wanted a MINI Cooper ever since The Italian Job. So at the beginning of this year when I decided to start a new build I figured it might as well be a MINI. So I just waited until the right one came along and here she is. At 10 years old I bought her with only 38k miles, 1 owner, full maintenence records, and bone stock. My patience paid off and I've been getting to work on it quickly. These photos are after one month of ownership, going from bone stock.
