Mini mine...

We picked Mini up last night and the bill came in at a whopping $860. The service did turn out to be very extensive. Dad felt it was a good value afterall. The price was just such a shock when not expecting it. The next service should come in 2 1/2 to 3 years from now and it will be less than $300. For that reason, Dad decided that the money we spend on maintenence does not outweigh the cost getting a new car would incur. So.....I guess Mini is safe for a while longer. She is my car for now. ...she is fun to drive!

I am glad you guys decided to keep her. Greg and I talked briefly today about buying her off you (as is our tenancy!) but decided a hybrid would be a better investment. Too bad though since we love a good road trip!
