Man! You aren't kidding, those folks bring a whole new meaning to highway robbery. Three days with a MINI from that company is about what I paid for a week in a midsize Toyota (and I paid extra to go with a company with convenient pick up and drop off sites). And unfortunately this company wouldn't rent a MINI to either Minirossa or I since they only want UK residents with a British licence. They must think we don't know what side of the road to drive on or something.

Not long to go now before you get to see one for real
IMO it looks better when it's cloudy as the colour gets much deeper. In bright sunlight it turns that lighter, turquiosy blue, but I suppose it really depends on the sky conditions. I have never come across such a schizophrenic colour

Cool Here's another great picture



I took it myself which makes me biased I suppose, but I still think it's great. The picture portrays just a hint of aggression even though the car is standing still, and the angle was determined more by constraint than anything else (taking a picture through a fence is a bit tricky).

Great shot! Pity the X5 in the reflection isn't another cooper or S!

I've been meaning to do some new more planned photo's of my car, determined to get a reflection of CMT's on mine (Where the cooper badge is)

Looks nice
