To be honest the SK was very cheap as it was one they had sitting around and wanted to sell it.
San has had a bit of a tough time this year and decided to treat herself.....

Hey don't get me wrong - I think it's a great idea - I just can't position the concept properly with Mrs ABG yet! I did try with "the X5 around town isn't always practical what about a nice little Cooper as well" but it got nowhere ) I'll try again when I attempt to add an inpractical roadster to the list .

More power to both of you for living for the moment. I guess the only downside is moving them all around for access

Fortunately we have a double width drive and can ge the MINI and the SK one behind the other so we don't have to mess about too much.....

Funny thing is though I have noticed we use the M3 less and less.....

Looks a bit like a five door CTR, and no CTR wouldn't be complete without a bumper dumper

I can't belive it's taken topgear so long to cotton onto this wonderful accessory

MINI, RX8 and MX5 - Done those............. It's now TTime

so to recap....

MCS
CR/W
Chilli Pack
Heated Seats
Cassette Boost
6 disc changer
Half leather seats???

how about DSC, think I would have this on my next car, as it is rated by those with it and had a loaner with it on and did feel nice when it kicked in.
