Ooooh, she's like a scratched record isn't she..? At least I've got a MINI and could attend rallies if I wanted to..!

My 3 will leave your Matrix in the dust!

Er, it's not my Matrix, and anything with a manual box would leave it in the dust..!

Congrats Jason...from one high mileage VR MC to another! I swear, not only is VR the fastest MINI color, I think it's also the most reliable . just over 130K here and I still haven't had to replace the battery.

My 52 plate IB/B MC is approachine 55k. Wont be long till it is well over 60 as I do 600 miles a week (and for all you americans, 600miles a week is a lot for uk drivers ). Anyways... was wondering after seeing this post where mileage is documented quite a lot..... when would the mileage be considered really high for my 52 plate and start to make people not want to buy it? I want to sell it before the mileage gets too high you see so i dont loose too much money! (Although when it does eventually come down to that stage I dont know if I will be able to get rid of her, I love my MINI )

I considered myself as the professional in this theme, and did not think that I can find in the Internet something new. But having come on your site, I have understood, that I know nothing and it is necessary for me to study and study as much as possible.
