...are brilliant cars!
My girlfriend's mum was great/crazy enough to insure me on their mini and I had some great fun driving it this evening!
The only thing I was a bit uneasy with at first was the break pedal being so stiff and small, the rest of it was a lot of fun (apart from the lack of heating!)

Would definitely consider one of these in future...

Gotta be better than a micra ;)

Pfff yeh whatever!

Mini's are fantastic fun, always have been and always will be. Get a lowered steering column in one, a 1348 engine and some disc brakes and suspension tweaks and you have fun to match most cars on the road around twisty little roads.

I don't think my girlfriend's family would be too pleased if I started working on it...!

Lack of heating? The heater in my mini gets up to temp rather quickly, faster than mum's silly Tigra :p

I think it's just broken/needs looking at - hopefully.
