Just out of interest what sort of spec was that for 17k?

I'm trying to persuade my brother to get one of these rather than a used Leon TDI

Not in speccin threads, they are made from lessons learnt

Jo had resisted MFSW on her last two MINI's but I put my foot down for this one and also whenever I drove her last MCC I would always make a point of highlighting how I missed it

Now she has it, she would never go back, the fact that you can flick channels, tracks, adjust volume without having to use the tricky stereo controls is a must on the R56, and she also likes that she has her bluethooth working through it too

The only problem I have is knowing which one to drive?
