Ya seriously, I was "planning" on trying not to drive it TOO much, but I end up missing Hugo and asking the g/f if she wants to go for a drive, at all hours of the night!!!

Normally, I put around 20k miles a year.
I think after I have the Mini, that number will be doubled.

I'm working with my son on his homework. After I'm done, its time for us to go to a supermarket, we are running low on milk.

I now ask my wife if I can pick my son up at all of his events.
This is in preparation for my new MINI when it comes so it does not look like I am doing it just to drive the MINI.

My wife has disappeared with Silver Bean so I don't have to pick up my son. I don't think I got the better end of the deal.

Very nice Maxicooper. And you just wait on the mileage count! All it takes is a couple of long drives for a Rally or two and you'll be racking them up!
