Or an Odyssey/Sienna/Pacifica/Carnival. But funny enough I was on the brink of getting a new Prius Prime a few years ago, and a friend's response was "that's f-ing depressing" lol

Lol I guess I've resigned life. I actually bought a Prius Prime. That being said, not paying for gas has its perks.

Does it make up for the emptiness in your soul?

jcmaz 08-29-2022 07:00 PM

It was empty to begin with until I heard VTEC, song of the people

Secret is to have a EV/hybrid/gas sipper as the daily runabout and a fun (or many) terrible fuel economy passion hobby car for the weekends.

Or just don't need to drive for a commute is even better.

When the Mustang is back on the road it will literally become my (summertime) grocery getter/errand runner.

A plugin/EV runabout + a toy is the best.

Was thinking of getting a 2nd toy but I don't even drive my one toy enough, not sure if I'll ever drive a 2nd one.

2005 MINI cooper $3,800
I suppose its very high milage for a mini. But the car looks well maintained from pictures.
I always have a soft spot for minis, classic or modern.

Dbone 09-02-2022 07:46 AM

2005 is a good year to get... but yeah, 250km is a lot to ask from that little engine.

My 04 Mini Cooper S has 319K KM (and running strong!) and had some items to sort out like a huge exhaust leak and required a new front passenger side shock but I would agree, $3800 is a bit much.

If you're curious ask what needs to be sorted out but otherwise from the photos themselves, it appears to be in good physical condition.

68style 09-02-2022 08:39 AM

Ask about accidents, I feel like from the photos the front clamshell has been repainted. It's a close match but seems like the shade is a bit off.

I stopped reading when I saw it was a 2.5 haha

bcrdukes 09-02-2022 09:07 AM

I saw the Craigslist ad and I think it had something like 137K miles (not KM) and it had a few bits and pieces of the interior that are broken/missing. Its condition is reflective of the price.

Ditto on the 2.5L engine too haha

trollface 09-02-2022 09:10 AM

That Z is missing like all it's badges. Sus

Was it a stick?
