• New Mercedes S-class 29 Jun 2005 (Forum)
  Saw one of these yesterday in the Black Forest, with minimal camoflage on the nose and back lights. As far as looks go, inside and out ´mini-Maybach´ pretty much sums it up. Very impressive indeed.

• MiniRoundabouts - have they 'messed' up Britain? 21 Dec 2008 (Forum)

• SatNav for HGVs 15 Mar 2017 (Forum)
    It would mean the car or van would have to reverse about 150 yards.   As it was the driver of the Mini following me was getting very irritated.   When we finally were able to pass the articulator I met another in similar circumstances in Bollington village.   The Mini driver gave me a horn salute when I gave way to the articulator.
