oh thats a bummer, i was looking forward to that too,

However i will say one thing about Modern Mini mag, the writers there just are'nt fully up to it. i read that magazine every month and i cringe on the train, i have even been known to say out loud "a load of rubbish!!!!" with some of the bull they put in there. they do not proofread the articles enough, constantly printing with inaccurate statements in there. in fact one month there front cover headline had a miss-print on it which was published to the world, nice. Thats what you call a good editor.

The trouble as a whole is they never convey the feeling and moments of driving cars. Where as i read a magzine like Evo and on most stories they let me feel how savage a car is, they get me involved with the experience. Mod Mini is just more like an old fashioned mag, you can almost hear the fake smiley "I'm happy" demeanor in the writing and is'nt the world a happy smiley place, look at that car over there it goes Broom broom. Where as something like Evo magazine the articles are more Gene Hunt Grab you by the scruff of the neck your coming on a ride in this car if you like it or not, GGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Your there, your part of the action! I want to feel that 390 Bhp, and lets be honest that has got to be one savage beast. I mean my car sometime makes me ***** my pants, so chirst knows what a mini with another 140Bhp on top is like.

So maybe it would be best to get his car featured in Evo as i knwo they like hot minis ( although prefer to occasionaly featurethe modded car scene)

Oh and i have to be careful as my mates girlfriend writes for Modern Mini mag,,,,lol
