Learner Minis in Perth

Well the 1st learner Mini is on the streets of Perth.

A red Cooper with dual controls, its going to be the 1st of many.

The lady in question will be on Mini2 very soon, if she gets time.

I can imagine all the younguns will want lessons in a mini rather than a loovley Hyundai..!

Details are attached if anyone is interested.

That is totally cool!!

My driving instructor said he would upgrade so something better than the Laser he has, but all the good new hatches were Euro, so their indicator stalk is on the wrong side... and for continuity when driving, most peoples car have it on the opposite side, so he wouldnt do it because he doesnt want to confuse the already confused learner driver...

Did you do the design? Looks great... I love the "patient lady driver" bit

she is from SOOONDAAARHHHLOOOND in England, so she might be difficult to understand.

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

Makes me want to go back and learn all over again

I seriously cant think of a better car to learn in, though I do feel for the poor little MINI


Some say he loves gaming and that he also loves house work..... All we know is, he's called The ScottyB!

I learnt in a MINI Not a COOPER though it was a ONE D, and i loved every second of it! they dont half fly up the motorway too! that was even more fun!!!

the sad thing is the cars do get fairly rough treatment on occasions i only bumped it up the kerb once though but i was v.careful with it after that (apart from getting about 1cm away from a tree it was 2 days before my test and nerves got me )
