My awesome Cooper that I'm selling at the end of the month because I just got one with a red S on the badge -

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

It is a 2.0 V6 Mivec GPX FTO 1997

Nice car nexus. Love the noise those little mivec v6's make.

I've recently sold the Metro and replaced it with an unbeleivably boring Renault Megane DCI  :gag:

It is funny as you drive at 50kph and its roaring away and if you were in say my mums Vitz it would be on about 7000rpm ish and you look at your dial and your on 2000rpm it makes you laugh.

Needs oil filter and new oil done because that is all crap and it is feeling better now its had two drinks from the pump as it was virtually bone dry at the car yard.
I think just sorting the little niggles from it sitting for weeks hardly being drove and it will be nicer.

I got to reset the management system and its one of the learning ones according to the book and its fitted to the previous driver I think so some down shifts when I do not expect them.
That not a problem either.

At 6ft 3 you do fit in it quite nicely, which surprises people but no one can sit behind me, but who cares.
Smoked a Celecia and a BMW off the line at on ramps already, just getting to about 80-90kph, not speeding but beating them to the punch

Oh dear ::)

You always looked better with the bag on your head Alan  :heehaw:
