No it's not a lost pulley party picture, or another MINI being upgraded at Jacks MINI Garage.
It's Smileee's newest motorimg mate.
A LY/MC Cabrio
This MINI had gone unloved for around six months so it has come to live with us.
The story as told to me by the folks at Towne MINI was: The car was special ordered for a BMW exec's wife. They went to New Jersey to watch it being unloaded from the ship. When his wife saw it she hated the car and they left it at the VPC. The car sat there for three months when it was shipped to Towne MINI to fill out their monthly allocation.
It sat for around another three months in Towne's back lot unwanted.
After hearing this sad tale I asked if someone there had been talking my daughters. They used to have me purchase the saddest looking stuffed animals by telling me how much they were unloved and we should give them a good home.
