Nice spoiler 
If i'm not mistaken, that's standard on the GTT model of the mini. might be wrong obviously. 
I don't really like those kind of spoilers, but i think it suits a racing mini

I've driven dozens of these cars Col and still can't stand em. Sorry mate.
I still love driving proper Minis though and have never felt self concious in one. Quite the opposite in fact. Sadly, the same cannot be said of the Bavarian plastic terror. I felt less ashamed when I had to road test a pink Figaro.

I think you mean weep dear. And the MINI community could probably care less. 
Those that follow BMW's 0.5 series might feel a little twinge though.

If that's what floats yer boat old chap. I personally think it's criminal putting YBDs in Fiestas though and I wouldn't have a tatoo, especially a car based one.
I'd Weld up the big hole in the roof of the little Min and pop a KAD engine under the bonnet and flog the cabrio thingy and spend the money on a holiday and back tires for the M3.

Indeed. Out of five cars presently, only one is a Ford and it's a shit one to boot.

Hold their value too well, probably end up out of pocket if I swap. Had a drive in an 09 Cooper on thursday and that was bloody good fun Just lacked a bit of torque for overtaking. Very surprised at the amount of room in the front

Can you swap? I thought you were tied to the Audi for 3yrs?
cooper or cooper S? The S is in a different league as far as im concerned, very good car to chuck around and have fun in!!

If your only going on a track 3-4 times a year take the convertible on and save your self the fortune and hassel of buying a new car
unless your there every weekend you can have a giggle on a track in your "normal" car, might just be me though

I can get rid of it when ever I want although it makes sense to keep it till its 3 as I wouldn't get any of my deposit back.
It was a Cooper I drove hence it being a bit gutless, still very good fun around corners - like a go kart. Would have to be a Cooper S if I did buy one because I like turbo power to make short work of overtaking
