Mini -> Old Peugeot 405 Diesel 1.8.
Insanity might some people say but no, nothing like it at all, just listen to me and I'll explain.
First of all, selling my Mini was a tough decision and I had to discuss this matter with my mind for a very long time. But then, you see, there is this insight of foresight, the ability of using your forward-long-term-thinking to gain the best for yourself.
So what I'd like to have - in the latest of a couple of years time - is a Cooper S (or even a convertable) with all the features handpicked by me. I'd like to sit there for a few nights gripping my brain about what the best combination of features, about the colour, the sound system...about everything really....


...and this then shall be the car I'm willing to pay off for several years.

That is what I've learned. And so I went to buy an old Peugeot 405 Diesel 1.8 from 1992, with a mileage count of 160 000 and still running and running.

The remaining thing to do: Driving back my lovely Mini Cooper, wishing it farewell and enclose at least for a while the memories of not stepping of the gas whilst bending the universe around a roundabout.
