Are you off to the motor show this week DOC?

Doc, you'll love the Cooper. I had a Cooper S for a few years before this, and although never got around to getting the Works conversion I drove a few of them at their Angmering HQ. Whatever you do, you need to take it to them if it needs work done, they are without a doubt the best garage i have ever dealt with. Very friendly and an amazing bunch of mechanics. They have built the most incredible custom mini's (old style and new) there. Believe me, if you go there you will be stunned, and be prepared to want to spend some more hard earned cash!! I haven't driven a GP obviously but i'm sure it will be awesome. The shriek the supercharger makes is going to get you addicted. Enjoy. And please post some pics. And if you go to Angmering please let me know!!

If I go to the motorshow I'll let you know - I thought if work takes me to London this week than I will go to the show!

The way to stop the little swirls is to give you car a REALLY THOUROUGH CLEAN WITH A JET GUN before you go anywhere near the paint with your sponge - try it but spend 10 - 15 mins jetwashing first followed by plenty of soap and you should not ge them!

I only put my deposit down 2 weeks ago (ish) so its worth ringing around - Even though various articles saying that the mini GP had sold out I still got one!

It was pure luck really as I was calling the Mini garage regarding a Scooby P1 they had for sale (which had sold - its a car I allways liked but at the time I bought a Ralliart EVO 6 instead )

Whilst on the phone I asked about the GP - the reply was that with them being a new dealership and having spent so much money on it (photos to follow - no flames please noobs)  and a really good one at that BMW had allocated them and extra 2 cars! 

It may also have helped that it was in the top end of North Wales, in a mainly industrial area!

It gets on my wick when you see them for sale on e-bay and Auto trader at inflated prices when people like you and I  really want one to keep
