You can hire a mini at any dealer here in the UK if you wish to visit and drive our great little roads that were built for a mini .

Angus thanks for posting my pictures.

my cooper on her last run averaged 54.2 mpg

Angus you know our Cooper S turbo will trash your JCW

My Cooper is Mellow Yellow but very difficult to get the true colour in a photo it does show up more Orange in the photo's I took Sunday.

The pictures some were taken at the top of the Cairngorms Mountains and the rest at Loch Morlich the foot of the Cairgorms and yes it was Chilli.

I was a little slow to see this thread, but I'm glad I found it. Those car look great, and I have to join the people who said the Mellow Yellow looks great and I love the stripes!

As a BRG owner, I have to admit that the Orange is pretty gorgeous. And GREAT wheels!
