Big hassle for me so I said forget it I don't have to sell the fuggin wheels.
In fact, I think I'll just keep 'em.

I was just looking for an answer on what happened.

"I wanted insurance for $1000, they said no. Big hassle for me so I said forget it I don't have to sell the fuggin wheels.

Not really the way I would have put it to someone trying to purchase a product and take it off of your hands. Oh well.

I like your Mini by the way.........
