There are a couple of middle-aged ladies who drive these walking their dogs at the same time as me. The tiny shark fin aerial at the rear of the roof has a red LED light on it which flashes when the alarm is set. Looks bleedin stupid.

Must be the target market, my mother (mid sixties) wants a mini clubman, a similarly ugly little (or rather big) so n so. I really do not see the appeal and £35k is obscene.

I think the Ford Mustang 5.0 is around £35 grand , personally I would prefer one of those.

I think most 'right thinking people' would prefer the Mustang, Mr Tilbo. :y

It gets worse. The Mini/Bini comes with a pissy 1499cc 134 BHP 3 cylinder turbo petrol lump....... and an electric motor which shuts down at 78 MPH. :-\

At least it's not canal boat fuel Opti !!

A moment of redemption but too late to save it from Room 101, Henry. :D
