I sold my '93 p25w Jasper in 2015 and bought a 2013 Tesla Model S. I miss the Deli but have never looked back. In 2018 my wife bought a new Tesla Model 3. Haven't paid any maintenance on either (except tires on the S) and the S is still going strong like new with 150,000 Km. Maybe when it dies I'll...

Glad we're back!

It looks like I seized the engine in my L400. Working on it but it might be a parts van.

Sure would like to re-power it with a Tesla powertrain... the perfect combo

I think by now, 3 years later, almost everyone will have changed their opinion on Mr. Musk and I certainly wouldn't compare him in any way to Donald Trump as someone did below.

I was reviewing my friends list the other day and realized 2 things:
1: A lot of the friends don't appear to be active anymore.

2: I joined in Nov. 2008 and always thought it was 2009. I guess I've had my van for 11 years not 10 as I thought.

It made me curious how may of the ' initial members '...

Last post

I joined in '08. I keep checking in but I haven't been too active. I had an L300 for 10 years until I crashed it in October. Just bought an L400 jasper. I've gone from 375 000 on the odometer to 53 000! I'll probably be a little more active as I get this van going.

That's one hell of a rig,...

Good Day All

I am considering a new toy and I think a Classic Mini is the way to go. Any Mini owners on the forum? If so, what is the best Mini forum that is comparable to Delica.ca?

Cheers

Had a '93 Mini. It's a fun car but having children got in the way, I ended up selling it to my friend.

On my recent trip to Silence lake I came home to find another mouse nest on my batteries.

The peppermint oil seems to work. I got a small sample from a health foods store. I put a small amount on a wad of cotton batten and place it between the batteries. I now use a rubber glove to hold the wad as that stuff is really strong and if you get it on your fingers it lasts for days. Goggle...
