1st Mini Cooper

After selling my Lotus Elise to free up some cash and get a more practical car in which the other half can use it was after much debate we decided on a Cooper after this one came up for sale by a mate.

September 2006 Mini Cooper
Pepper White
5kmiles
4 yrs TLC remaining
2 yrs BMW warranty remaining
Chilli pack (Half Leather etc.)
Incl. AC upgrade to Climate control
Black Bonnet stripes

I know it's never going to live up to the Elise but the wife hasn't had a look in since we collected it last wednesday she's been left with my A4 S-line. You do need to rev the nads off it to go but it is pretty nippy and the handlings excellent. An all round fun car to drive

Ignore the quaity of the pics, they were taken with a sony eric. 2meg phone

Looks very smart. It might not live upto the Elise in handling terms and speed but at least you wont have to put up with that dodgy roof lol
