MINI2

Spent the best two days of my driving life after picking up our Silver MINI ONE on Wednesday (wifes birthday present but she allowed me to share the driving!). Grin Factor 10 all the way!

Best part though was on the M1 when I was passed by a Subaru Impezza WRX STi. The driver must have been really ****ed when the two women in the car (one in the front and one the back) turned around pointing out the window mouthing 'wow there's a new MINI'. Bet that burst his ego bubble big time!

Great day was finished off when a red Cooper came the other way, flashed his lights and waved. We then knew that we had arrived.

Looking forward to years of happy motoring in FOGGY (FG02 PSU)

I think i've got a better gego deflater than that - try an audi tt 225 quattro being passed and minced by a Mini One and the audi owner was trying hard. It's a case of knowing what your car can do - not just buying a car that can go fast just you were told it can by the sales man. I've also killed a mini classic that was seriously not standard as well as a pug 205 in the same state. My personal fav was a guy at work saying his saxo VTR with green cone induction, magnex exhaust and P zeros could out handle and out gun my One. Big mistake - Mini wins hands down

Not too hard to have a better looking car than a Scoobie Doo.
