Lady's Car?

Seems quite a few of the minis here belong to the wives - is the mini really a lady's car?

As with the classic Mini before, the MINI appeals to all kinds of people from all walks of life whether male or female, people who think otherwise have usually never driven a Mini/MINI or just don't get the whole Mini thing and never will, no matter how much you try to explain it......at the end of the day its there loss.

Not a woman's car at all , I've got a golf R32 and a first generation cooper S and can honestly say I have more fun driving the Mini , but I suppose everyone has their own opinion .

It's uni-sex

My gf's car is the Cooper D. She loves cruising around sedately. I love winding it up and carrying too much speed into corners. She hasn't let me try out the stability control yet :P

I guess MINIs are described as cute so thats a womans term and thus they think its a ladies car, it is a very good ladies car too, but also a very good guys car, and as long as you dont fit the headlight eyelashes can be made to look butch too.

of course its a lady's car..... its also a man's car, a car for the pauper and the wealthy, old, young... you name it! That to me was the beauty of the mini, it tells you absolutely nothing about the person driving it.

My other fun car is a 7 litre cobra, about as macho as they come and yet I still love driving the Mini.
