Introduction
The Bismarck is in the bodyshop so right now I have this to get me around (was either this or a 1 series :yuck
- a 'Mini' Cooper 1.6i. Only done 6000 miles, not a fan of the looks, the interior has some nice touches (lots of chrome and funky anthracite plastic) but some dodgy bits (the speedo is in the middle so you can't see it while driving, seats lack any solidity and the stalks are plasticky), engine's flat as a pancake (doesn't have the power peaks of the Brava's engine) and I have this irrational feeling I should be flashing at other new 'Mini' drivers. And for any GP drivers, I can barely touch the clutch rest with my big toe so it's good for tall people It's going back tomorrow and I can have my own car back :woot:
