Every One Should Drive A Mini

RememberMorrison · 04-23-2008, 07:04 PM

That's right! I think every one should drive a Mini. Well in Europe as you might know the cars there are generally smaller, more fuel efficient. America needs to change. I understand some people need to haul stuff in their pickups or SUVs, but lets face it. The Majority of gas guzzling SUV and pickup owners have no real need to haul anything expect for themselves or 1-2 other people. We need to change our ways and get off of Saudi oil, but that is a topic for another day. Minis are practical the S models have some go, while still boasting 29 mpg combined City and Highway. Plus with the arrival of the new larger Clubman model, it gives people the extra space that they are used to.

I like the old ones the best.

That Cooper S in the picture is a jaw dropper. Those O.Z. Superlegras look like they were destined to be on that car. I love the paint scheme as well.

A GTI is something that I would much rather have.

The coopers just seem, I don't know. Just don't have that punch.

Lol we have a Mini for the grocery getter. It was my DD back in 04. Its a John Cooper Works.

Dark silver with a black roof and black and blue leather. Cool car but was too small, too heavy, and not enough power for me. My aunt drives it now.

BTW we have a family "compound" in North Carolina. Several houses next door to each other. Grandma, Mom, Aunt, Brother, Me sometimes, and guests.

They are all artists except for my brother and North Carolina is a nice locale for the profession.

Also that pic isn't our Mini but looks identical. I don't own a camera nor do I care to.
