    My first car! Introducing..pedro! (56k no no!)

    Few of you know (if you've gawped in the 'show us what you drive!' thread) that when I passed me test on valentines day I inherited mums new micra as my daily drive. Well, today I got my 18th birthday present a month and a half early....











    2000 W reg Mini Cooper. 1275cc, 22k, black with white roof and bonnet stripes.
    He has a leather interior, with wallnut dash - chromey bumpers, lovely clear lense light thingies and alarm/immobiliser.

    I have called him Pedro, due to his number plate 'OLA!'

    oh you jammy get, you!

    Looking darn sweet I have to say. Nice to see some of us youngsters have taste and have something a bit different to the Max Power cars.

    Been for any cool road trips in it yet?
