What is it with private school kids and Mini's?

There's a private school round the corner from my house and most of the kids drive brand spanking new 06 and 56 reg Mini's. These are only 17 / 18 year kids. It's so unfair.

Yes, I am jealous.

Hey! I met a sort of cousin of mine for the first time the otherday, she goes to a private school somewhere in derby, loved my R56 Mini, but then proceeded to go on about how much money she had etc etc etc, gave a very bad impression of private school girls! especially when she was only bragging about her dads impreza..... The ferrari 512M 308GTB and Murcielago in Myyyyy dads garage had er off everywhere... lol

The only car that was cool at my private school was an Aston Martin....anything else got the reaction of 'Has your domestic come to pick you up?"

We had a call from a father of a 17 year old and an 18 year old , both had 56 plate Mini Ones booked in for SupaGlass, he asked if we could re program the ECU's on both to make them slower....
