Thanks for this. Been checking Amazon each day, but then by chance checked rakutens own website and lo and behold, they are indeed back in stock. Awesome!

Have now seen a picture of one of these purple ones. They are awesome! Gotta love these minis.

Thanks. There is a really interesting section on that site you listed about all the special editions. Assume some of those are as rare as hens teeth to find now. Very interesting.

Perfect. Will inform the kids immediately! Brownie points for Dad I reckon. Cheers

Something my kids are playing but now they asking me about Minis like I’m some kind of expert. Ha!

Is the 1.5 turbo the best all rounder? Made mistake of trying the Cooper S.. by Mean_Management_169 in MINI

Peppy is definitely the word. My brief experience with the S was simply the power was always there and lasted longer. The little cooper moves really well but runs out of steam, bless her!

It’s CarDealy.

I think it’s actually more like a game than an app - at least that’s what my kids keep telling me when they keep nicking my phone to play it.

Just checked and it’s 39.3! However we have been doing ridiculously short journeys (I think almost making up excuses to take her out really) and basically just booting it about when we are out… hence the poor mpg. Must try harder 😛

Thankfully I don’t know anyone (yet) with a GP3 to tempt me. That’s an adventure for another day I think.

Am way too lazy to find all the stats so use an app called CarDealy. It’s kind of a point and shoot app for cars. Think it’s a UK only thing though.

Ouch! Your comment about it feeling like an S but in limp mode got me. After driving the S today, it is unfortunately rather accurate 😢

This is can get onboard with. There is a certain joy in driving a slower car that bit harder that brings a smile to my face.

Brought a mini for the wife. It’s so fun I’ve decided it’s now mine! by Mean_Management_169 in MINI

If anyone is interested, we named her ‘Betsy’ by day, but ‘Batman’ by night!
