Thumbs up Two MINI One D Reviews On MINI2 Now!

Martyn (Ginger) and myself met up last week at the MINI One D launch.

Our thoughts are in the reviews section, as well as the current latest news story, back to back:

Any questions, fire away.

what superchips have done with the yaris seems to prove the 2k-4k power band point. Sounds like it would suit the motorway MINIs though, but I don't think I'll be getting one.

good location hehe

Yeah, the 'round table' should of been a blast in the mini! did you guys carry on all the way round South Barrule, past the Mines down into Port Erin/Port St Mary area? Because that would of been a challenge for the mini and a great drive for yourself...How did it handle those roads? Hope you enjoyed your stay here.
