on my way home, i saw a Paceman S  pass me by, and i had to wonder if i could tell the difference between it and Countryman if there was no badging...

Driving thrills makes my wallet lighter.. and therefore makes me faster because i'm shedding weight... :D

It's funny how they're keeping the largest minis. Or is it ironic? I haven't been sure since the Alanis Morissette fiasco. ;D

It's one thing to have a car with retro styling. I think it's quite another to have an entire brand based on it.
On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.
