Le Mini Cooper d'Adam a été au centre de la scène le tuner de l'ouest de l'île avant que ce site n'ai été commencé; et nous aurrions dût présenter ce véhicule unique depuis fort longtemps. Si vous l'avez participé à une rencontre à Lafleur dans les dix dernières années, vous avez probablement vu. Si vous étiez un membre fondateur de ce site, vous le connaissez personnellement. La Mini a été l'une des voitures les plus reconnus à ces rencontres et félicitations à Adam d'être une partie essentielle de la scène tuner depuis si longtemps.

Adam's Mini has been at the center of the West Island's tuner scene since before this website was even started and its well overdue that we feature this one of a kind vehicle. If you've attended a Lafleurs meet in the last ten years you've probably seen him. If you were a founding member of this website you probably know him personally. The Mini was one of the most recognized cars at these meets and props to Adam for being a pivotal part of the tuner scene for so long.
