well this is a story usually referred to as 'bubbles heading to venezuela' or 'the day bubbles started to unscrew his numberplates and gave up'.
normally trinimini would have an annual Independence day parade to south ending in some far place like granville, for those kids who can't go POS. anyways we took a detour and ended up on a beach in chatham at low tide, with just miles and miles of hard sand to play the as$ on. (see video)

so we end up at the end of the beach and tide begins to rise quickly, i have photos of what happened next.

Happened with me in manzanilla by the river where the bathtub derby used to be held..
Left it for dead and eventually gave it one last try and found out the hard way why one should not drive there front wheel drive car on the beach.

wasnt a mini btw.

to each his own
I actually owned an Old Mini and had BMW Cooper as a daily driver.........I really did not enjoy the old mini and ended up selling it........hated the seating position and steering, as well as the shifter........maybe I got spoiled with the MGB..........I love the Bimmer Coop tho........
