I know, mine was crazy cheap, they still do them for £10 at Hastings but its gone up to £28 in Crawley now. I guess at least you won't have to hang on when you're going round roundabouts now lol.

Hi all. I'm considering selling the MINI ( yep after all that !!) I'm not as happy with it as i thought I would be, yeah the heated seats and gadgets are great but the ride is not great (due to the sports suspension-ouch) and i'm a bit concerned about the power steering issues, am wondering whether to sell it whilst its got low mileage (31,000) as the probs are really on higher mileage cars(but not always)
Its a great looking car but is not what I though it would be-had more fun driving my old mini!!
Just means I wont be able to do my mini events which are basically all the socialising I do but i can still get involved in the social side of things with the club.
Would sell it and then buy a cheaper car-not sure what yet so i wont owe as much either.
Any opinions?

jenjade

wow mm- i am in shock...

what about selling it and getting an older mini?

Nichelette

Go for it on dooyoo Jen.

That's a shame about the mini mm, but you should do whatever makes you happy. I'm not even sure I'll bother getting another car when mine dies (I say that now but I bet I will) so I'm probably not a good person to give advice.

jenjade

will you lose much on it mm? also have you been think about it for a while? you should have a big long think about it

Its your choice really, have a good think about it. if you are not truely happy and you will still get a good price, might be worth downgrading

there are 2 things i really want at the moment and i am not feeling very patient!

i want a new tv with dvd and freeview built in and i want a house! I really don't want to wait!

I have been saving my amazon vouchers for the TV and will have £85 tomorrow in amazon vouchers! can anyone remember doing a short drug survey that there was a link for on this site for a amazon voucher? I haven't had mine yet i think we were going to get them early march?

Nichelette

I did that survey too jen, and my boyfriend, but neither of us got anything

jenjade

i think i did it twice too! lol
