New car time
Well possibly.
I'm picking up my sister in law's 2001 MINI one next week. It's really for my son but I will have it until he sells his Clio. It's got a clear MOT, FSH and only 67k on the clock. Quote excited by it if truth be told |

You may be pleasantly surprised Simon.
Swapped our ZTT last April for a 2016 MINI……..wasn’t sure I was doing the right thing but, it’s turned out to be a fantastic wee car. Even the early ones have a good reputation. It will be a fun drive and should be reasonably reliable. There’s a growing interest in the early Y, 51 and 52 plate MINIS. Enjoy!

My son had a 2010 Mini One First bought off a friend of mine at work. The First was the lowest of the low powered Minis but it was a great little car, still quite torquey as it’s the same Cooper engine just strangled a bit but rode and handled beautifully. Really quite disappointed when he chopped it in for a C4.

I had a R56 mini a couple of years back and loved mine, it was only a 1.4 but it was so much fun to drive. Would have another one in a heartbeat.
