Oh, how it feels so good to be back.

Hi all,
After five years in the wilderness I’m just about to get a Coupe. Having owned a real Mini Clubman Estate (old English white and sporting rust bubbles), to the first first new Mini Cooper followed by supercharger, then the turbo hatch and a further three new Clubman’s (Clubmen?), SD Convertible, Volkswagen GTD, Mercedes C350e Estate and at last back to the Mini in the form of a Coupe. The VW and Mercedes (very fast when the electricity kicks in) are reasons too painful to go into. Best Mini so far? The first one then the supercharged S.
Its a low 17000 miles, one owner, full Mini service history, supplied and now sold by the same Mini dealer. Mini Coupe SD (Mini should change these initials). Collect in a couple of weeks.

Nice Coupe. I didn't know they make a Coupe with the diesel turbo. What I remember reading years ago is that Mini's diesel engine wouldn't pass California's emission standards so Mini didn't import them to the US.
