hiya,

i joined after someone kindly left a flyer on my car in somerfields car park.
i am the proud owner of an L reg BRG mini cooper - the love of my life!!!!:D

HOWEVER...... i have just found out i am pregnant with no.4, and no matter how i try, i wont be able to get everyone in once the new baby arrives..... am gutted! :(

so, my question is, how do i go about selling my beloved car... how can i work out what its worth? and how do i know it'll go to a nice home???:o

it has just under 47k on the clock, walnut dash - all the usual stuff and drives beautifully. the down side is it is rusting around the windscreen, and the headlights - not really badly, but bad enough to see and probably need dealing with.

any friendly advice would be really appreciated, as although i'm really happy about the baby, i'm really sad about parting with my mini!!!

thanx xxxx

Hi there. Sorry to hear you are having to get rid of your mini. I am expecting our first baby at the moment and agree that its not the most sensible of family cars! Sounds like a nice little mini. Maybe you could post some pics on our for sale section as we have lots of members and guests visiting the site every day and it is bound to get noticed.
Good luck
Kaye :)

Hi :) I put my '92 Italian Job Mini in The Quids In and it went in a few days! You also might try E-Bay too.

Maybe you could keep the mini, and buy a family car to :)

direct line do good deals on insurance 2 cars, ;)

Maybe on a more serious note, i think deano would prob give you the better idea on what the possible value is, a few pics would be handy to :)

deepest spologies Indismini, the person i had in mind was swayed, ever so slightly, (ha ha) towards a new mini. Hope i didnt waste your time. All the best with the sale, she looks well!
