    Greetings to all mini lovers here in tsikot!

    I'm albert and I'm also a mini lover but unfortunately i don't own one.. i'm so desperate to own one and i would really do my best to acquire one in the near future.. I'm now in the stage of finding a mini and I prefer a mini which I, myself would restore.. I don't care how much time it would take me to restore one (even if it takes me years!! I dont care!!) but I do care with my budget.. hehehe.. because i'm still a college student but i'm really willing and i'm really committed in finding the mini of my dreams.. I'm in love with the car.. and everytime i go out to the streets i always search for minis that may pass.. I really want to own one, i really want to restore one. and I think restoring a mini while i'm still a student would help me greatly in my studies(im taking up BS ME).. I'm already starting to save money so that when I find the mini to restore I could already spend on some restorations needed.. I hope that you - mini lovers, could help me in my quest of acquiring the car of my dreams.
    Thank you!

    Albert

    PS. Where could I find minis for restoration??

    Thank you very much talaga!

    Hi albert,

    I'm also a Mini fan who still dreams of owning one. Tell us all about your dream Mini.

    1) garage queen or daily driver?
    2) stock or modified?
    3) what type (mark I, II, III, etc)?
    4) what engine (850, 998, 1275)?
    4) normal Mini, wagon, or Moke?

    Well.. I want a daily driver.. a mini that I would take anywhere with me.. Well, it depends what's cheaper.. i think stock would be cheaper.. I want a mini cooper(me pinagkaiba ba yun sa mk1-3??).. I don't care about the engine.. as long as my dream car would take me anywhere i want to go.. and I want a normal mini with very nice external finishings as well as the interior.. I really want to find a mini which I, myself would restore to perfect condition.. but i'm really having a hard time finding one because all i could find are fully restored minis and they are way too expensive for my budget.. huhuhu.. if i would find a mini cooper to restore, i would restore it nice and slowly.. i don't care if it would take me years.. I will give my best to my dream mini!!! I wish someone could help me find a mini for restoration..

    Sir magkano po ba ang budget nyo for a start up project? There is one there sa tsikot carfinder sa mini na for sale at 85K, Another one there na unfinished project na naka primer pa for 65K ata, check it out! Madali gawin ang mini to the specs that you are looking for but the most important thing first is your budget.

Greetings Mini Lovers!
