we have 2 now, this is a 1999 John cooper LE, 1275 multipoint injected engine, 13 inch alloys adn sportspack arches, leather interior, and a full maniflow exhaust system....its pure brilliant

had to sell the SAAB to make space as you can plainly see!!!!

baby did not come with the car ??!!??

class cars there fair play

u look very young to be driveing,how do u reach the pedals

baby looks well and happy in the mini for sure,think a tot rod would do the trick :cool:

I love that interior......is it standard for the Cooper !

Little Babs is staking her claim to the collection already !!

very nice car, the baby looks cute:D

yeah, thats the standard in this model, which was a 300 off LE.

need wheel bearings, tracking andpads/shoes before next weeks NCT. Other than that its the usual bits of rust on late minis, 6 years old and it needs the botom of teh doors looked at - scandalous.

looks sweet, how much did you pay for it?

Brian - I want a go

Don't get me wrong, it's a lovely car an' all, but since when is a six year old car a classic?

Looks mint...she nice 2 drive?

green-blood · 29-06-2005 7:47am

very nice to drive, but completely different to teh 66 850, this is much stiffer and way quicker.

Its a mini, a real one, no BMW parts in sight, I accept its only 6 years old, but it is a CLASSIC car, an ICONIC CAR and believe me you make sacrifices to own/drive/run one.

When the design is unchanged for more than 40 years.

The design is iconic, the car isn't. I consider my 12yo E34 iconic, does that make it twice as classic as this?

I actually quite like the new Mini. Sure it's not "true to the original concept", but it's still a nice car imho.
