I was also impressed with the interior room as a 6'2 man myself

In the front seat.... yes? The other guy was saying his 6'2" son fit fine in the back seat. I don't see how. I'm 6'3" and my seat pretty much touches the back seat. My 5 year old couldn't sit back there.

My first song was the CD Coldplay XY. I know this a little off topic but does anybody have problems with certain disks playing in their CD player? When I insert my Coldplay CD it won't find track 1 and it trys to switch to MP3 search. If I leave the disk in the player and switch to radio and come back a while later, everything works. Should I report this to my dealer; not my choice of music , but rather the problems playing the CD?

Could the disc have a data track that is confusing the CD player? What happens when you pop it into a computer?

Good call. When I stuck it in my laptop, right away it wanted to install some MP3 player, then reboot my PC. I suspect on the Mini it can't do that and after a while it reverts to the music player that's built in. Hence the fact that it works if I leave the disk in for a while.

Dumb Coldplay

Cruel Summer by Bananarama
Thought it'd be appropriate to play something British.

Probably a Sony disk trying to install a rootkit.

Next the Mini's will have anti-spyware, anti-spam, anti-malware options I wonder if the JCW version will cover everything and include a firewire

CKNW Newstalk 980. Because the traffic was crazy on the drive home.

Seriously, though? I had my "Driving Songs" playlist on shuffle. First song was the Foo Fighters' "New Way Home".

My new car song is always "I get around" by the Beach Boys
I'd also suggest "Believe" by Chemical Brothers
"Weapon of choice" or "Sho Nuff" by Fatboy Slim
"Are you gonna be my girl" by JET
"Wherever I may roam" by Metallica
"Enslaved" or "Wild side" by Motley Crue
"Track 09" from decksanddrumsandrockandroll by Propellerheads
"Out of my way" by Seether


For your first drag through all six gears, play "Hate to say I told you so" by The Hives or
"Cowboys from Hell" by Pantera

Just a few options...........................................
