All my lovely fiancee Laura hears about is how great Mini's are :D

She came into a bit of money recently and decided she wanted a new car. She's always wanted an MX5, so we started looking. I told her to take a look at Mini's, so she did, and after popping into Menzies on Sunday, she decided on a yellow Cooper with black roof.

I knew I could persuade her in the end :D

So hopefully there'll be 2 of us on runs from now on - because there's no way I'll let her drive my S Works... :p

And maybe she'll join NMS, still working on that one! ;)

Did she try the MX5?

The only reason I got rid of my MINI was the hard suspension, hopefully the new model will be more comfortable. I love the MX5 but I'll be getting a new model MINI as soon as the Traveller comes out :D

I think its next Thursday she gets it. For someone who wasn't that into cars or Mini's last week, I've got JCW sound kits and brake kits floating about her head now :D

She didn't try the MX5, but she did say she'll have a soft top one day :cool:
