Offline | Should I stay or should I go? Dilemma The ETA of my Chili red cooper s is on August 1. The exact time of departure of my holiday is August 2. So instead of motoring in my so long awaited MCS, I am in Greece riding a twelve year old rented stinking honda off-the-road (if I'm lucky, might as well end up at the back of a donkey  )Moreover, for 2 1/2 weeks I would also have to pretend to my girlfriend that I'm having a good time and that I'd wish this holiday would never end  My brother already offered to take "the honeurs" for me and give the MCS a good run in. He is such a noble and altruistic guy  Anyway, can I have some advice as, in theory, I can still cancel my holiday. Might cause a bit of a fight between the girl and me which would probably end up with (the threat) of her going alone to Greece (not exactly the place where you want your girlfriend to be on a summer holiday, IYKWIM ). |

Offline | You have inside information, but that's not a bad idea at all OnlyS4me. You are a very evil man and I like it It all depends however who is the strongest and there I don't stand a chance. Women power I guess  |

Offline | OK, here's an alternative then, cancel the holiday, dump your girlfriend "temporarily". Once you've got over your initial MCS obsession, go crawling back to her. Remember it's only a suggestion and in now way use this as evidence to persuade her to come back if you should take this route MINI, RX8 and MX5 - Done those.............

Offline | Things are looking bad for Annemarie (yeah thats the name of the wicked lady). I realy feel sorry for her, but she can't argue that I didn't put this question for a objective forum of a random group of people from different countries, before making this decision. Oh there she comes, better go now, she doesn't even know I'm on this forum (if she knew she probably would seriously advice me to get some proffesional help ) |

Offline | Thats one vote against me then Your'e absolutely right Sejanus, whether I'm going to Greece or not isn't even a question, just wanted some compassion for this problem I was going to consider the option of An_S_4_me though(taking the 'steed' to Greece), weren' t it that darn boot is too small for my luggage Maybe OnlyS4me will swap his CTR with my MCS during my holiday; I could even take four friends to Greece with me then (and a refrigerator, a jet-ski and a piano) and we would still have plenty of room |

Offline | Before anyone asks: No, I will not be posting pics! This is a site about cars and even a very special car, namely the Mini Cooper S. There are plenty of sites on the internet where you can see pictures of women BTW AidenL, congrats with Ireland, you did very well reaching the last 16 Hope you will do well against Spain (probably, will be a tough game though) Still a bit disapointed those green shirts aren't orange though... |
