I am here for Friends

About Me

Hello, my name is Sooty. I am a 1985 Austin Mini Mayfair. As my mummy has said many times before, I am an un-finished project. I was bought from a garage called Linfield Motors quite a long time ago. Mummy and her boyfriend at the time were looking for a car, they spotted me sat behind some other cars and thought it would be funny to take me out for a test drive. It was love at first drive, they bought me as soon as they got back to the garage. Before that I had changed hands with many Mini enthusiasts. I would like to eventually be classed as 'finished'. Mummy is saving up some money for me to have a new roof at the moment, she gets a bit wet when it rains!! Mummy originally bought me as a 998cc with brown interior and no speedo! Daddy put a 1300cc motor in me after I broke and he fixed up all my rust patches, tinted my windows and changed my interior to black leather seats. Mummy still has big plans for me but she needs some more money first.Mummy is in the Guernsey Mini Owners Club (GMOC for short)She has been a member for a couple of years now. We try to go to all the Mini events held on the Island. We all meet up on the first Sunday of every month. My favourite time of year with the club is Christmas when we get all dressed up and go for a drive to spread a bit of Christmas cheer!If anyone knows me they will already be aware that one of my pet hates is the BMW version of me. I will not go into too much detail but how they can get away with putting the Mini badge on something like that is beyond me.My best friend is Sparky, he is owned by my Mummys brother. He was originally bought for £50 and started off as a 998cc Automatic. He is now a 1300cc with a stage 2 head, rollor tip rockers etc. Basically he's alot quicker than me! He has a VERY loud stereo, playstation 2, TV and DVD player as well. I still have to give him the odd jump start now and again. Daddy owns a mini too, her name is Hayley and she is a 1975 morris Clubman. She got the name Hayley from when Mummy and Daddy first picked her up. Mummy bought her for £60 for Daddys birthday as a restoration project. Since Hayley had been sat in a barn for years she had a lot of Hay in her exhaust which all came out when we drove off.

Myspace Graphics

Movies:

The Italian Job

Television:

I love a bit of scrap heap challenge
Online Now Icons

Books:

I tend not to read as I find it difficult to turn the pages of a book with my wheels. I've tried to read some of the Haynes manual when Daddy's got the pages open trying to work out why I don't want to work. It was far too complicated for me!

Heroes:

My heros are Mummy and Daddy for not giving up on me. Even when most people would have given up and dumped me. I love them so much !!!!
