    Very true, my brother has had a few and when I get over my E30 phase (won't happen) or some spare cash a mini is defo on the cards. I nearly bought my brothers Clubman estate with metro 1275 before he emigrated but couldn't afford it at the time.

    It took me a while to get used to the clubmans but I love them now! I've been in one which had a VTEC conversion - 1.6 litre - unreal :D

    Thanks :o There's a 2004 mini knocking about as well (late meath reg I think). It does confuse people :) I saw a few years ago (before prices plumetted) one that hadn't been registered for sale here. Something like €20k the eejit wanted for it. It would have been lovely to reg it in 2009 for the 50th anniversary.

    I remember when we were driving up on that car from a distance, I was wondering what was going on, and once we passed them out I was a little surprised that they were going to ruin their hair ;)

    I suppose I've numbed to what I've seen on Irish roads over the years, but that's for a different thread.

    thing is even if he did park properly the car is too fecking big for the space !

    like i was in shock over the size of the car cos i walked around it and it was huge.

    you can fit a mondeo in that parking space with the bumper on the line and nose not sticking out and have 3 inches either side but that car if parked perfectly would stick out no matter what !

    Is it a fiat 127? Saw plenty of 126s still on the go in Italy, but few 127s.
