Looking good...the Clubbie looks very nice, both are damn clean though considering the time of year. I must confess that i'm still tempted with one as my next company car.

I got a new camera for Christmas too, i'm yet to take some MINI pics though.

we love the clubbie,it does get mixed comments,its drives really nice,and handles well,it feels sturdier than the cooper s,and uses less petrol,
Ian gave the cars a clean yesterday,he is slight obsessed with cleaning cars.

our next door neighbour always laugh at Ian cleaning the cars,Stuart next door never ever cleans his car,my dad parked his Fiesta round ours a few weeks ago,its a Y reg,when my dad came back he did not recognise his own car !and everybody commented to him what a lovely clean car he had,(which nobody had ever made them comments before)

I love Mini adventures! Well done on the photos Daniel, the MINI's are looking good. I just remembered why I love my MINI so much, I just cleaned mine and got 3 comments from passers by about how much they liked my car. I doubt you get that with many other car brands...

i have the wheely bin cleaned every 2 weeks,and always have the same conversation with the wheely bin man, " love your mini's" "god they are clean " "nice wheels" the conversation has not changed for over a year !!
We had a double glazing bloke trying to sell us double glazing on the door step the other week,told him we did not need any windows,so he spent the 5 minutes talking about Mini's

Took mine over to my parents in Sudbury today, it's been unused since the Friday before Christmas and apart from a sluggish start (reckon it was down to the past cold and damp weather) I got home and it was absolutely FILTHY! I've got to wash it now again before tucking it up in it's cover. I can't believe that a 40 mile round trip has got it sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dirty.
