Yes, I do talk to my car… he’s a very good listener… unlike a certain monkey who shall remain nameless.

SO the final total for repairs did end up equaling Penfold’s  approximate value, but it was worth every penny (including interest).  Items addressed include: brakes, battery, A/C recharge, A/C compressor, air bag sensors, motor mounts, license plate holder, etc.  I still have a few minor things that need to be dealt with at the Dragon, but it is nice to have my MINI home.

I did consider selling- but due to fate and miscommunication it didn’t happen, which in hindsight makes me very happy.  Now on to 100,000 miles!

    Very good. I’m glad you were able to bring your old friend home. I wish I could have done that with Seymour. I look forward to seeing Penfold soon.

    I’m glad everyone is still in the family. Say hi to Penfold for me.
