She just bought a pair of tan colored ones. When they make a Chili Red pair we may consider her behind the wheel of my mini.

Do you suppose that she can drive your MINI down? I'll teach her how to drive that stick. Your clutch may even survive.

Insured? So what!

They don't make R53/52s anymore. Your cars are irreplacable.

Congrats to Spawn! A trip south to a Mid-Ohio breakfast would really help with the experience hours!

Would have to agree that those shoes might be a bit of a problem... unless she just uses the cruise control to adjust her speed...

I remember many years ago... I was on my way home... only to see my daughter pulling out of the driveway in my Porsche.
That'll get your attention!
Both daughter and Porsche are now gone.
