I've made a almost definite decision that I'm never selling my Mini Cooper. First car, but I have a love for it. Is this normal? :P

Ahh, good work. My advice then is - Get a Haynes Manual, a good socket set and start saving for all the goodies you're going to want to buy. They are Brilliant cars... well the're more than just cars.

I got a Haynes manual (the holy grail for wiring problems <3 ), got a big Halfords Professional socket set (almost as precious as the car!) and my wallet keeps filling and quickly emptying. Am I doing it right?

Jam it in, will be ABSOLUTLY fine mate. Refresh with 20/50 as soon as you can ideally but it won't just blow up! Mixing grades is fine we mix grades on race cars depending on temperature to get ideal viscosity

Devestated to hear about the death of Stephen Sutton. Yes it was going to happen and yes it was imminent, but it is such a shame for someone so full of life and so willing to help others to have passed. This boy is a massive inspiration and if you can, i urge you to donate just a little bit to his justgiving page. RIP Stephen.

its heartbreaking. Someone so full of life and with such a great outlook and willingness to put others first has lost their life, yet people who don't deserve to be here are still living soundly. i hate this.

I agree - life's for living - this guy obviously had an inspirational lust for life which has been tragically cut short. The message is simple - life's short - make the most of it!

I've just bought a 4.2 Audi A8, bit more power than those Bimmers but nowhere near the torque. If you don't mind 20mpg they're great fun....And cheap to buy so it all works out in the end.
