Hi

Like uncle Joe sugested I am introducing myself!

I am from the south cheshire area and own two minis, the first being a Rover Mini Sidewalk (N reg 1996) and the second being a Clubman Estate (R reg 1976). I fancy an older car next as a project, but need storage space first.

My Sidewalk is in fair condition with the usual mini problems, i.e rust starting to set in, that will hopefully be fixed up later this year or early next, I run this as my daily car at pressent. My Clubman Estate was meant to be a runaround to carry beehives but then I have had a fair ammount of work done to this, and now only use it for shows in dry weather. This car has just been used for the photos in a 6 page magazine article.

I look forward to lots of interesting chat!

Cheers

So thats where you got your handle from. There was me, thinking that you were a Rossi fan!

For someone like me living in foreign climes, what on earth is a Mini Sidewalk?

Yes my other hobby is the old craft of beekeeing. A mini Sidewalk is one of Rover's limited editions, 1000 were made. Have a look at my website: www.minisidewalk.co.uk for some more details and some pictures.

Cheers
