You want to hear a whine when you drive eh - just put a MINI driver in the passenger side

Believe me, there's nothing wrong with Mini Driver. Actually I think we had a thread with her in a little while back that I had to move to off topic and banter

[Harry Morant]

Kinda fits most of the MINI Drivers I know - not exactly pin-up types but we all have a certain something that makes us a cut above the norm in a non-snobbish egalitarian type of way.

As to getting back to the topic of this thread - regardless of whether its a Cooper or Cooper S, its still a MINI and if you can find a way to get one you'll love it.

I'll drink to that! Why stop?

Don't let the Cooper S guys fool you.

A Cooper can still pull the chicks. I had 2 stunners I have never meet before beg me for a ride around the block.

It's the ULTIMATE CHICK PULLING CAR

Aaaah, how do i say this.....

If MINI's are so good at pulling chicks why are there heaps of Aussies, including at least two single ones that I know of, sitting, posting on MINI2 on a Saturday night

i've had a few experiences where chicks have wanted to have a ride

a week after i got my mini there were 4 chicks in a jeep wrangler who wanted to swap cars...we drove next to each other for quite a few suburbs talking...but no way was i gonna swap for a wrangler

JugMan...a 91 corolla hatchback...i remember them! maybe u should write it off as an excuse to get a mini

[JugMan]

Nah, I couldn't write it off... I still like it a lot as it's kinda my first car... if ya know what I mean.

unfortunately the digital camera I took this with was CRAAAP! so, it's not really that colour.

[brett]

As you all know I live in a very small country town. I have run out of girls,

Hello next trip to Brisbane or Sydney

[jaydub]

JugMan...I learnt to drive in one of those! a white one though...

i know what u mean about your first car...i've still got that...well i gave it to my mum...i'm not gonna say what it is though...i might get killed in this forum

[JugMan]

so it was a VL commodore eh?

[jaydub]

no...it was another "new retro car" all i'll say is that a VL might get more respect here than that one

[JugMan]

Okay, back on topic-

I found a really cool feature on The Mini Australia Website that lets you see all the options and prices etc.

From what I've seen in other people's cars, I think at a pinch, I could spec my options down to the MFSW @ $700.

But there are a few things I'd like (listed below).
PLEASE! Comment on their use, value for money, etc etc.

Interior Lighting package - $200 - could be useful...

Metallic paint - $650 - meh... I'm open to suggestion
I'd probably go Chilli Red(non metalic), or Indi Blue(metallic)... I'm more realistically looking at the cooper now...

Xenons - $1100 - HELLA expensive, and probably the least likely to make the cut

Rear spoiler - $410 - Is it worth it?

Front fogs - $290 - we're not foggy here, so they're also negotiable...


PLEASE! Tell me your experiences with these things. I'm keen to hear them.
