I stumbled across a MINI yesterday in Leamington Spa.

It was just parked on the side of the road in a residential area, with a baby seat in the back!

I just had to hop out and have a good look - it was an Indi Blue ONE with Daytona alloys. I have to say, my first impressions of seeing one in the flesh was one of superb quality and flair.

It really looks like the team designing it got completely carried-away, but that's fine by me! The standard cloth interior looked very smart, the chrome work was wonderful, bit I thought the 16" wheels looked enourmous up close.

I was surprised by the apparent leg-room in the back - maybe the driver has very short legs.

I just wanted to hop-in and take it for a spin.

If you're in Manchester (UK) next week (18th to the 20th I believe) keep your eyes peeled. UK Launch is happening there. Apparantly they will have helicopter and motorbike assistance on the route, so keep 'em peeled!
