That was the day before Davy, try and keep up ;-)

We popped in to Menzies, she saw this and that was that. It does drive nicely and only has 7000 miles

That replacing the better half's car John? Nice choice.... :)

We nearly always end up buying a car after going to buy something trivial ... :lol:

The boot is huge, far bigger than the hatch and Clubman (unless you fold the seats of course)

Yeah it always amazed me that one of the smallest cars had one of the biggest boots. :)

I was looking at a dark grey Cooper SD with the JCW body kit for the same money at John Clark Aberdeen, but Ness didn't like the colour.

I couldn't get over how far the gen 2 has moved on from the gen 1 R50 and R53s we own. It's such a lovely cabin to sit within.

Yeah I agree with you on that I love the GP2 interior .. just the paint colour I'm not struck on. Dare say if I got one though I'd grow to like it ;);)

Stunning motor :thumbs up: i'd never really liked the Orange, but, with the black stripes has changed my mind, happy :motoring:

Thanks guys, we were looking for Pepper White but my wife saw this Spice Orange and was sold.

I was really surprised how spritely the gen 2 Cooper engine feels, so much smoother and urgent than our old R50
