I miss mine sometimes but love my jcw to bits at the same time and shure I will love key next one as well but the one thing I would not go back to is less power I just love the way my jcw pulls :-)

That looks as smart as..............Tell you what it was easy for me going from My Honda I bought new to my Mini, I miss the four doors and the boot at times but it really was a dull car to drive and just a Civic.

Bit more difficult if I had say your old Mini there, what do you miss? After all your Mini is one of the nicest Coopers I’ve seen.

I was pretty gutted selling my cooper, still really miss it, even although I have a better car now, i sometimes wish i had the old one back. The new one misses something, I think it might be character (que Crombers)

Even i miss your 1.2 Corsa Merit ;)

Your Subaru was the most unreliable car i've ever known.

The big ends went at what, 18k? That night we went karting. Actually, that was the night you introduced me to Laura.

Aye, cheers for that...

I miss my old Fiesta's boot, and I had an old S-Reg Polo that was built like a tank, but apart from that no!

That Starlet is nice David. One of my friends has a white Glanza that is mint!

I REALLY miss my subaru as well even thogh I only had fro a little over 6 months, it was AWESOME!! It was a red 'S' reg prodrive special with P1 brakes and suspension all round and was putting 300bhp, I traded it in for my 1st new MINI Cooper(silver) in 2002, the rest is history.

Cant find any pics of it at the moment.

My old Astra was fun. Spent a while getting it back to standard-ish then the head gasket went (the head cracked too).

I kinda miss all my cars in a way.

1. VW Jetta. Nothing ever went wrong with this car as there was nothing to go wrong, very basic but reliable.

2. Fiat Brava. Nippy and 5 doors. Cheap to repair and was actually a nice drive for a Fiat.

3. Ford Mondeo. Loads of boot space and despite being a 1.8 very good on fuel.

4. Renault Megane Coupe Alize. Only a 1.4 but very fast. Great handling and a dream to drive but it was just built by people who didn't know what a spanner was, lol
