I'm getting a new car - hopefully
At the mo I've got a beetle, still love it but had it 4 years so looking for a change. I'm thinking of changing to a mini cooper s and would like to hear your opinions on the car, good idea, bad idea?

Is that one of the old beetles with the air cooled engine or a new version? If I had an old one, I'd keep it.

If you keep your beetle,if an old one, in another 21 years, it would be classes a 'classic'. And they are made better than the mini.

The mini cooper is ideal if you want a smaller car, but not as robust.
At the end of the day Dj, it's your decision, and am sure you will make the right one for you.

The new Mini is made under the control of BMW.
Sounds like a great choice Dj.
Pretty nippy version!
Just ensure it has the Union Flag on the roof!

Ooooooooo. You luck thing you. I LOVE the mini (new or old), and if I didn't have children, I'd DEFINITELY get one.
Enjoy it.

Suzi after considerable thought I think I'd rather have the mini! They are marginally cheaper to run
