New Mini Metro?

Something to make you smile on boring day at work.

I've been looking for new jobs and one company said that my Cooper wasn't a suitable car to be used as my company car and therefore be paid a car allowance.

I said why on earth not and made sure they realised it was a new BMW MINI not an old Mini.

They finally replied to say that, 'yes, a new Mini Metro' would be acceptable as my company car!!

I put the poor girl right and shall not disclose the name of the company, might get in trouble as they are pretty big.

Varse's Velvet Beauty Mk11 is no longer, sold back to my dealer.

Calling a MINI a Metro is a capital offence isn't it?
