The Cars That Ate Paris!

Hi folks, I write from downtown Paris... It's full of Minis this place!

I've seen 3 silver/black & 1 solid silk green MINI already & more classic Minis than you could shake a baguette at. They are Mini mad here!

Both old & new Minis look way cool zipping around on the cobbled streets of Paris. Nothing else on the road comes close:)

Oh, and I saw a Renault Vel Satis for the first time... That has got to be the ugliest heap of merde I have ever seen :eek:

I couldnt agree more :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :p :p
Hope your having a good time :confused: :confused:
And do all the classic Minis have front and rear nerf bars to deal with sport of parking in Paris? :p

A "heap of merde" to coin a phrase, n'est-ce pas? :D
hehe

Yes, also want to take the Mini to France. But when you think of it, you're gonna see a lot less than in the UK and I still get gawped at in Bristol (well....:rolleyes: I do realise a lot of that has to do with my dashing good looks but I'm sure the car has something to do with it). So I'd imagine you'd get loads of attention in France (And lets face it....thats a lot of what the car's about isn't it?)

In fact....here's an idea....what about a Mini Run to somewhere in Northern France....e.g. Normandy. They love the Brits in Normandy (something to do with you liberating them in the war)
LOL
btw - are you planning on going down to Devon to watch the boys (and girl) on Saturday?

I think you need to come over here to the States. I want to see if you're everything you hype yourself up to be! :D :rolleyes: :D

...Yes Bruce, a lot of that going on over here. I watched a fur-coated luvvy in a Smart aggressively nudging her way out from between a Boxster & a Merc leaving contact damage all round - It's a chien mange chien monde ;) - I winced at the scratches, the driving, the car & the coat
:rolleyes:

Having had the misfortune of dealing with Mr.Ciaran Darcy I can honestly say is the most physically disgusting creature I have ever seen in my life.

Shooting at birth would of been much fairer to him and us.

Hey, Mr. C, thats the last time I tell people that you're such a nice guy. Methinks you might just be jealous. Mind you, my girlfriend wasn't too impressed with you either:p , but then again, she can afford to say that when she's got the best:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

By the way, Simon is a very very nice man....who's about to get a few calls from me regarding my Mini...wouldn't have bothered him before, but seeing as he's insulted me, his customer service skills are about to be tested!!!!!:p :p
