After a few weeks of driving round in complete bliss I am sad to say that Max (thie mini) and I came across a rather deep and large pothole which has basically done all sorts of damage to him.

He is now in the crash repair centre having new front suspension, wheel bearings, possible new front wheels, new tyres on the front, computer reset and reprogram (as all the warning lights in the car went mad, airbag light, runflat light, etc etc). They are going to check everything over and the back as well and then make sure he is all aligned.

Could be without hiim for 2 weeks, am V SAD AND ANGRY

Worst of all I have a 1.1 cc CLIO as a courtesy car !!!!!!!!!!!!!
