Sold my 2013 Cooper S last year and then we got hit with Covid so I’ve been saving hard. New car ordered and I’ve opted for a Countryman Cooper S, all black and added heated front windscreen and a heated steering wheel. I also opted for the malt brown leather interior as I think it’s the best one they’ve turned out in a few years.

It was due here in the Capital at the end of September, then told the beginning of November, then told it’s due the middle of November. I popped into the dealership at Newbridge last week and Ian checked the status and yes! It’s still in Rotterdam.

I’m am Old man but excited like a bairn on Christmas Day. Once I get it, I’ll be a teenager again as long as the auld dragon isn’t by my side. This will be Mini No. 6
