Had a problem free weekend with the mini, but all was not to end so smoothly. was backing trailer into my works premises, got out to unhitch trailer and car got hit by a drunk driver in a v12 7 series travelling in excess of 70mph. If id been a few seconds later id of been T boned with me in the car or if id not yet uncoupled trailer id of been dragged out of the workshop with it. So farewell to the best tow car ive had. |

Gutted for you mate, that was a clean straight car. As you say at least it was an empty car and nobody was hurt/killed. Hope the drunk driver gets everything he deserves. 14.914 sec 1/4 mile @ 91.38mph, NA 1293cc on 1.1/2" SU's (all steel and glass shell) |

What a shame to see such a nice E30 ruined. It is only a car though, it was a lucky escape.
