Hi all newbie with a Cooper D

[RetroTed]

Just joined as i am getting the apron strings a Mini on Sunday and thought this would be a great site for advice etc. We're getting a Cooper D on a 59 in bright red with a black roof and mirror caps. The reasons for getting it is my wife likes quirkey cars and we do a few miles so the derv seems a good comprimise

So hi all and any bad omens I should know about or look for before parting with my hard earned.

Welcome. No bad omens from me, I love my Dooper Convertible, any excuse to drive it to work.
