    Just back from a trip to London and a few other places...1500miles.. Clubman handled it well, and that included being involved in a police chase on the motorway (not me they were chasing by the way)...

    Got back yesterday and I have to say the drive was a treat in the MINI. handled the A1 with ease, while the Mrs took the wheel for the A66, I sat back and enjoyed the scenery.

    Here the MINI outside our chalet at Hemsby.



    and this is a lowered pickup just along from us.



    talk about slammed to the deck.
