Notice things are a little quiet on here recently, just thought I would post pics of my MINI on here, had her for 2 weeks now and it's just fantastic!

Nice

I see you've got the Nav

Dont see too many about with that option! At the time of typing there are no Cooper D's on MINI Cherished with Nav

drbsheffield · May 4th, 2008, 04:27 PM

Yeah, was looking to get a new one really, but this one had a great spec, was as new (and I am the fussiest person in the world!) and had just over 4k miles on it at a great price so I went for it and have no regrets so far!

supa-dupa-cooper · May 4th, 2008, 04:29 PM

Got any plans for it, or keeping it as is?

drbsheffield · May 4th, 2008, 04:37 PM

Just keeping it as it is, I like cars to be standard to be honest

Very nice!

I love that colour, but Astro Black was too irresistable

. The only thing I'd do is add some bonnet or viper go faster stripes

You sold a 123D for that?

Don't get me wrong it is a nice MINI but I don't think I would have swapped a 123D for it.

drbsheffield · May 4th, 2008, 07:05 PM

Yeah I did, the thing was , I got my money back on the 123d which meant that I had quite a lot of change from it after buying the MINI, plus I have got a new job which is less than 3 miles from home so will only be using the car for pleasure so it was a balance between having a nice car and having more disposable income.

The 123d was a great car but never felt that exciting to me where as the MINI makes me smile everytime I drive it!

Greenie1 · May 4th, 2008, 07:08 PM

Lovely pepper white.

VincentVega · May 4th, 2008, 08:04 PM

Absolutely lovely. How does the handling of the MINI compare to that of the ride on mower?

drbsheffield · May 4th, 2008, 08:54 PM

Ride on mower almost as much fun !!!!

Too right. MCS over a 1 series any day. Looks so good with the sat nav. Wish I'd gone for it now too. Grrrr.
Happy motoring.
