Default Another New One....
Hi, Another newbie here...

Have just traded in our much enjoyed 51 plate Cooper, and picked up a new Cooper D Graphite. We went for the black roof and stripes option and added the Chilli pack and a couple other bits.

Initial impressions so far are what a massive improvement the new model is over our original first edition one, and so far we are getting pretty impressive MPG and the Cooper D is quite a bit quicker than our old 1.6 petrol Cooper!!

Yeah i know, getting around 60-62MPG at the moment, yet it goes like a rocket!!

I am from sunny (well sometimes!) Devon in answer to the other question.

I'll post up some pics of the old and new ones when I have taken some pics of the new one!!
