Wind up key

The dreaded wind up key meets the performance set.

Need I explain to you why you don't see such abominations on other BMWs, WRXs, Evos or Porsches? Have a clue people! The Mini is the king of the small car segment, treat it with the respect it deserves! If you want cute and funky, you should be driving a Beetle. If you are among the guilty, go watch the original and remake of the Italian Job back to back to set your thinking strait, and then hope for forgiveness for your sacrilege from real Mini enthusiasts.
If you're looking to fulfill your true gearhead and car enthusiast cravings, spend as much time here http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/ as possible, like I do.

I'd never have guessed..... (<--Ladies & Gentlemen, that was sarcasm and joking around, by the way....don't want anybody casting aspersions on me!)
x uh oh x

Kudos your perceptive prowess. But I'd expect no less from a BRG with bonnet stripes.

The only that changes is that now, apparently, the OP doesn't agree with me. It's not like my opinion has changed upon seeing that his opinion has changed.

How can it be fast? The stripes are going the wrong way.

I think our Kipling said it best:

If you could keep your sheep,
while those around you were losing their's,
then you will be satisfied, my son.

But, not to seem sheepish, I rather think
this thread has gotten a bit wooly.
