Hi, just introducing myself, Im Karen and I have just got myself a 51 plate bright YELLOW cooper. I used to have minis years and years ago and sold my previous car and wasn't sure what to get, I looked at the old shape minis but decided to take the plunge and get the newer ones..... not sure my knees are up to standing out in the cold and wet trying to get an old shape mini going again so opted for the baby I got.
I had it in my head that I wanted a yellow one, against my husbands wishes but decided to follow my heart.
Im enjoying it so far :)

Classic Mini's are great, I still have one but for daily driving on modern roads a new shape Mini is far more practical and just as much fun to own and drive! :)

Checked over my car today and when I bought the car I didn't realize the n/s/r tyre is mis-shaped and perished so that's £110 and I need to change the n/s/f bottom ball joint inner as well.... I'm working tomorrow so I'm hoping my husband will take pity on me on do it for me!!!! On the plus side I took it to have the rear windows tinted... limo black... it looks amazing but then again I am biased!!! :-)
