Mini's do look nice, but Mrs Bean seems to be leaning towards an Evoque or RS3 at the moment

Ady, thought you were 'sending the Mrs alone' to the Mini dealers at the weekend

Ah yes i was but you know how it is SWMBO Ive to keep her sweet at the moment, i'm picking my motor up on saturday

Yes, fully understand presumably once you pick yours up, you then turn and tell her that the purchase of a new roadster has been put back due to greater than anticipated expenditure on the RRS  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

it was totally standard when i bought it, then had it colour coded with new style arch's then i put jcw brembo brakes on it, then 18" wheels we went to look at the new roadster at the weekend and the wife fancies one of those but she said she would choose all black with jcw bodykit, chrome kit no stripes, silver wheels and toffee interior,
And this was her convertible

love the convertible, but I think the aerials spoil it  the more you sweat in practice
the less you bleed in battle

Well worth it imo, see if you can have a look at one with a sunroof in, it will help you make your mind up, costly i know but with all the extras you can add to a mini the price tag just gets bigger and bigger

Apparently average cost of extras is £4K.......blew that no probs.

Good idea might go and have a look at one with a sunroof tomoro'

Cheers bud - Im off for a beer.

PS. Guys - thanks for all the help with this one. Pleased to say its sorted.  FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
