haha we were taking it easy becasue it was wet :lol:

I nearly died when you decided you were meant to be on the left hand side instead of the right!



oh on the M5 to M4 change?

lol yeh didnt realise the juntions were so close together, had only just passed the previous i pulled out to over take a truck, got past it and saw the turnign next to me, cut across the chevron markings lol, and then i realised that my mate (infront of you) was only in a 998 not 1275 so i was like ooopps, nearly killed him lol, didnt realise it was you following.

following me isnt a good idea lol :dontgetit: rules of the road do not apllie! haha

Yep thats the one!

Must have looked insane from any other cars watching! 3 minis darting it to the other lane just in time.. I was just going past the van when I saw you diving across.. I was like, we gotta do it Im not getting lost again!

You might have seen us going the wrong way before. I followed a Mini 30 about 50 miles and realised it wasnt going to the show 2 junctions past the one we were meant to get off at. Saw 3 Minis go the other way and turned round, saw you and caught up..


haha nice, yeh i had to keep the speed down as my mates 998 has never seen past 80 lol, we lost you for a bit thou, where on earth did you go lol?
