• New (used) car choice to replace Mini Cooper 8 Dec 2008 (Forum)
  It's time for me to get a new car to replace my Mini. I'm not looking for anything like my current car - it was originally my partner's, but various circumstances changed and I've ended up driving it for the last couple of years. I'm 6ft 2in, and all my cars previous to the mini have been big(ish) saloons, so I'm looking at a Ford Mondeo 2.0 Zetec, Mazda 6 2.0 TS2 (last shape) or possibly a Honda Accord 2.0 EX (last shape).

• Rare Enough to Flash? 9 Mar 2005 (Forum)
  The "shapes that last" thread mentioned that Espace drivers used to flash each other when they were rare. I've only ever had a Mini where this was done, and it was an enjoyable time of raod brotherhood - the kids loved it. Do MINI owners do it now? Do any other cars' owners consider themselves 'a cut above' in this way?
