163.9 miles,
3 Hours 6 Minutes.
Ouch, I really wish id sent it to get tuned last week, when sat at 65 it seems to slowly feel a little lumpy, which is fixed by taking my foot off the power then back on, which can get annoying

Glad im getting my mini serviced and tuned tomorrow just in time for the 200+mile round trip

Did anybody's mini break down on the way home?
I saw about 6 mini's on the side of the M6 waiting for the AA to come and rescue them.
Was glad mine was on my trailer instead!!!

Matilda was smooth as a very smooth thing both there and back. Just over 320 miles I finks . On the M40 I accidentally found she can go over 110mph.... ...I won't be doing that again. > Bad Juju. > Got a b*ll*cking from The Ancestors for that. I might find a get another one from the boys (and gals) in blue soon.

The engine must have been screaming at you at 110MPH!!!
I had my mini at 95MPH on the way home from buying it and i thought the engine was going to explode so let off the fast pedal and cruised at 70MPH for the rest of the journey!!!
