    I just drive what my company specify that year, but I am going to try to persuade them to let me have a Mini back.

    What's it like to drive?

    This is where in my eyes it falls down, its not entertaining to drive and the ride is just too harsh. for a premium product i expect to be cosseted not jarred about. Its squeak free and well built but booorrriiinnngggg! Wish I could have kept my Mini, that car had a soul.

    easy , small enough to be a doddle.
