Thanks for the reply!!

Its horrible waiting!!

The Mini was such a great car, better than my Mums IS200!!

The dealer I went out with (Whitehouse) booked me in for a ONE, Went out in that for about 40mins, U can have as long as u like really, an hour maximum I think, jst ask!!

After the ONE, the dealer took me out in a COOPER, pulled over and let me drive it (cos I wasnt down on the insurance!) so I got 2 test drives and he took me out in a freshly delivered 'S' - FUK ME there fast!!

Decided on the ONE, The COOPERs gearing is way to short and revvy - Which is nice, but I do loadsa Long journeys!! The ONE is a cruiser!

P/S - U may feel like ur driving a MPV at first, u feel quite high up, and the I nearly put the dealer thru the windscreen were the brakes are SO good!!

Take care

Andy
