I also notice how other drivers attitudes differ towards me when i'm driving my mini as opposed to my euro box. People treat me really badly in the mini - more cutting up etc, etc. I wonder if it's becuase they think they'll get 'stuck' behind me or inconvenienced somehow because i'm in an older car.

Yeah, you'll need to update your V5. Actually, is it not printed on the V5? It should be.

Has just won on the Euromillions! Granted it was £2.70 but a win is a win!

I thought that was going to say 2.7 million. That disappointed me :(

But because the ticket cost £2, you only really won 70p, :D

I won too. Lol is it sad that I was giddy when I realised?

Is the fact my mini never needs to be choked to start/run in any condition you can name a hint that it could be running slightly to rich?

That's the thing, my plugs indicate a perfect mix! Still think it's worth leaning a bit more?

If it was me I wouldnt be worried unless fuel economy was bad - unfortunately I havent been on a long enough run to know if mine is better on the economy side or not yet. Im sure someone else with a bit more know how will have words of wisdom :-)

Mine did that. It was supposed to be at 3.5%. It ran at 9% when we put it on the gas tester. Oops...

Do not know why, but I'm really thinking about buying a Toyota Sera, maybe it's the Gullwing doors?

Definitely go and have a good look before committing any more bids. Dont trust the 1 yr MOT things - it can still have problems you dont want as a first mini.
