Cheers Andy, one of the highlights is that it's the one car that's had you round Silverstone :hand:

Good to hear, my JCW will be 10 at the end of this year, with 78k on. Still feels new and tight to me, no plans to ever sell it as I just don't think I'd bond with anything as well as I have this one

I agree, but it means they haven't found their perfect car yet. Once they have, they won't want to sell it

Got an 11yr old Fiat Punto for the daily grind so the MINI has been 'retired & pandered' for a few years now.

I'm in an R50 heaven ...... so to speak :thumbs up:

I've tried to swap ours for an 'S' a few times but the missus loves ours and won't part with it :yes nod:
She did have the XR2 for 17 years so Mutley still has 6 years to go before beating that record :laugh:
