Minis are going to have to get a new name. I’m thinking I’ll need to do the same.

That's Katharine's - a Countryman SD - nippy little thing but they can't be called a Mini anymore for sure!

We are about to order Jacq an electric Mini Cooper and saw the new version of that in the showroom. They are now bigger than a Freelander by some margin and you need a step ladder to clean.

Why did you decide against the R5 Wayne?
If I was in the market for a small electric, it would be my only choice!

They are not small either James!

I love the concept, and the styling, but can’t get past the x lights across the front. However, my thoughts are somewhat moot as she doesn’t like it!!!

This week got a clean pass on the MOT of the 1970 S. First time MOT in four years. That was the good news. Oil leak on the transaxle is the not so good news. Fine preparation for CLM.
