Glad that we agree on classic Mini ! Cheers Pal ! Darren. PS- I’ve had no trouble quoting on other forums ( from my motorcycling days - over since I injured my back ).

Agree on the Classic comment. Even a 2000 Mini is a classic design!

Before closing, I have a very general question. How does a person quote something from a thread ? I have tried pressing the “quote” button beside a persons post, but it never shows up on the dialog box for me. Would someone please tell me how this function works please ?
Cheers all ! Darren.

Congrats on the grey one btw. It looked like a nice car for sure. Drop a link for the tracking, I wouldn't mind tracking your car to determine if the driver will indeed show up on time in Montreal when he says he will. (I really am surprised I stumbled across this post, it was the first post in the forum I have looked at ever, and even more surprised we are using the same vendor for hauling)

It's only -35c in Calgary and plus 4 in Montreal with a ton of corrosive salt. Raining in the Maritimes.
You need snow tires to drive in Quebec in the Winter.
We have driven Minis cross country 3 times ; to Denver twice and to the All British field meet in Portland Oregon.
All in the Summer and in a fully prepared car. That been said my blue Mini with the half Mini trailer that was on the road from 1979 to 1989 blew an alternator in Kenora and we had to wait overnight at the Best Western for the Greyhound bus to arrive with our part from Winnipeg. So we booked a King size suite and settled in for the night.
We have also delivered a Jeep to Calgary at Christmas in 1991 and the roads got closed at Sault Ste Marie so once again an overnight stay at the Best Western was required.
Darren when your Mini is inspected, plated and insured on the road you can come to the All British Car Day in Ottawa and meet everyone...

btw....Jap classic MINIs were made in the UK
"Everybody should own a MINI at some point, or you are incomplete as a human being" - James May
"WET COOPER", Partsguy1 (Terry Snell of Penticton BC ) - Could you send the money for the unpaid parts and court fees.
Ordered so by a Judge

I wouldn't drive a Mini like that cross country, no way, no how. Maybe if I had owned it for a year and had a boot full of spare parts, and loads of wrenching experience, then MAYBE !
Good luck Darren. We're following along the saga of the missing Mini nearly every day now.
I do remember tracking mine across the ocean back in 2005. Exciting times, eh?!
~ 30 minutes in a Mini is more therapeutic than 3 sessions @ the shrink. ~
