Hello all! Alright guys, so I'm about to take a little road trip up to Montreal for the week (about a 6 hour drive) and I've been debating whether or not to take the MINI. I know I know, it's not a hard decision, but something about me wants to keep the mileage off my car. However, you buy a car to drive it right? I have an old 97 volvo in the driveway too all oiled up and ready to pack on more miles...but the ride is not even comparable of course Should I baby my car and keep it in the garage or have some fun and tack on some miles?

 

Motor on -- mini's are for driving!!

 

Just remember to wash it after every drive...so take your trip and STILL baby your MINI! You with both now.

 

Ferraris are to be parked in the garage (or living room). MINIs are for driving.

 

Carpe Diem - seize the day!! Crank up the MINI!!

 

I say take the Mini! You bought it to drive it right?

I got mine at the end of April and I've already driven it to both coasts

 

I felt the same way, but really wanted my MINI with me when I had to make a Family Emergency Trip down to AZ. 3,000+ miles round trip and I don't regret it one bit!! Take the MINI...Live Free...Feel the Love...Enjoy!!

 

I think the Mini I just heard your Mini drilling holes in the Volvo's oil pan. Take it. The new baby needs love.

 

I've had mine about a month - and now have over 3,000 miles.

I've driven it on two long road trips, including SLC to San Francisco and back. I say keep driving!

 

I listened to all you guys and what a fun trip it was! Plus, I got my first MINI wave from a different country Now I just have to wash her up and change the oil and it's back to cruising around town. OH, Montreal seemed to be quite the city of justacoopers and mazda 3's. Both of those were everywhere so I fit right in...I mean, granted mine looked the best

 

Well done Team...so glad you decided to take the MINI along!!

 

Congrats - eh?!!

Sounds like a fun trip

 

Robin, where did you get your shifter at?
