Newspaper article

In yesterdays (4/13) Orlando Slantinel they had a review of the Mini. I thought it was a good article and the reviewer liked the car. Article was written by Ann Job of the AP.
I hadn't seen the article on NAM yet and was wondering if anyone else had read it?

It's a pretty bland, but generally positive, review. Still, positive press is nice to see.

Interesting...we saw lots of articles like this back in '02! Nice that people are still "discovering" the MINI. I thought it was funny how she referred to the "normal" speedo position in front of the driver. Seems I've lost track...I somehow thought the center was "normal." I've been a MINI owner too long!

Glad to help.

Funny thing is, looks like she has reviewed the MINI before:

"Bottom Line: MINI finally adds a new version to its three-door hatchback line. The 2005 MINI Cooper Convertible uses the same engines, transmissions and body, but its novel fabric sunroof/open roof adds a new, fun dimension"

I guess even auto reviewers have their favorites.
