After watching a recent episode of Car SOS, I Google searched the registration of our old Mini Chelsea. To my surprise, I found it.
My wife was the original owner. The Mini Chelsea model commemorated the 5 Millionth production-run of the Mini. We were able to celebrate the Mini 40th Anniversary by driving around Silverstone alongside other Mini owners.
We reluctantly sold it following the birth of our daughter: it wasn't at all practical for carrying all the usual kit required in transporting young children.
Sadly, the picture that I discovered shows many missing/original features. I can only glean that the Mini has a SORN classification. I was not able to deduce where the car is presently located.
Has anyone else taken the time to search for a much-loved car that they once owned?
