I've just recently become a new MINI owner having always had SAABs (my Mum has a Mini Mayfair 1990 like new with 6000miles but that's another story!). I sold a SAAB Diesel which was a great car but too large for London commuting and bought a 3 yo Cooper CVT with 13000 miles and a very nice spec. Great so far and ideal for the job.
However, I took it for a free TLC service and brake fluid change at Sytner of Chingford (a bit disorganised and over snooty - are they really pleased they sell MINIs?) the other day and realised I had bought a BMW. Look I still have 2 SAABs and would never drive a BM. Everything they say about BM drivers is true IMO.
So my question is, are MINI drivers BMW drivers in drag or do they behave completely differently (perhaps wave to each other or flash headlights like SAAB owners years ago used to?).
This is really worrying me, I cannot admit to taking on the BMW driving temperament - please help me somebody and reassure me that all is well!
