YES.. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT to have a DECENT dealer... And YOU SAY frustrating??? >>> My Ex GF found a car she wanted to replace her old rust box, so, I phoned the dealer, asked the various questions, got everything sorted and said to him... "Ok, we'll be coming by motorbike (my old Suzuki RF900RW), we should be there by 4 PM, and we're coming from Grimsby (His dealership was near Blackpool 155 Mile away from us), so... we are PRETTY MUCH SET on the car so please, hold on to it till closing time, thank you"... And he agreed to wait... So we donned our motorcycle gear, checked the weather (said there might be rain, and so took waterproofs too), and then filled up at a local garage and off we set... We get to about Doncaster area, and then the bloody heavens opened up! So we pull over and quickly suit up with waterproofs and set off again. An hour later we've battled through dead slow traffic on the motorways around Manchester (by this time getting as cold and wet as just simply jumping fully dressed into a pool!) We decided to stop at a service station around Bolton for a quick cigarette break, at which point I decided to give the dealer a call to let him know we were about half hour or so away.... For him to say... "I just sold the car...." 2 Hours/117 Miles in the pissing cold and rain, battling with a good section of the motorway that was blocked by non moving traffic, and facing THE EXACT SAME PROSPECTS heading home... WITHOUT the thing for doing ALL THIS in the first place!!!!! I was HALF IN MIND to carry on to his garage and break ALL the windows of EVERY CAR he had in his lot!!! Buuuut... I had 'The Missus' with me who was soppin' wet (behave! NOT that kind of erm... 😏), and shivering, bless her. So, we had a quick warm up coffee/tea, I refilled the tank, and we set off back (yeah, I made her a bath as soon as we got back (I'm a well trained puppy haha))... But THAT DEALER... He KNEW what we were going through to get there and buy the car!!! W H A T A N AB-SO-LUTE C N U T!!! 😠😠😠 😎🇬🇧

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

The trust Alex’s wife has in him blows my mind. My parents could never. Especially after the great car debacle of 2012. Mum needed a new car, big enough for 3 kids and room for the dog too. She’d been looking around for a month prior and had found a nice 2010 A6 Avant. She’d been to view it already and loved it. She said she’d be back next week to pay and collect it after it was serviced and MOT’d. Come collection day, Mum had been called in to work, so Dad went to collect it instead. Problem solved, or so she thought. Turns out, Dad had tried to argue with the guy about a very minor scratch on the paint which mum already knew about and didn’t bother her. Dad then refused to take the car and instead came home with a 2006 Jaguar X-type SALOON, almost exactly like the one he drove. We now had two saloon cars, neither of which could fit 3 car seats in at the same time and also no room for the dog. What he was thinking, to this day, I still don’t know.

I once sold an M6 GC and the buyer mentioned cash - I didnt cotton till he turned up with a literal shoebox with nearly £30k in used notes. He was super dodgy, but I managed to confince him to give me his ID and I was desperate: so did the deal. Bearly slept a wink expecting the door to be kicked in. Went to the bank first thing, crapping it that the money was fake. They told me they had to count it by hand because it was 'damp'. It was all there, all real, and actually over by £80 (told the guy and he said to keep it). Great content as always. The podcast is my goto driving companion!

great purchase - I just helped my parents find a 2021 Clubman Cooper and we are all very impressed with it, as well. They used to have an S 211 E-Class estate and wanted something smaller but still nice enough to drive on the autobahn. Obviously, the ride is not as smooth as the one in the E-Class with AIRMATIC was, but it's alright. The engine, although only a 1.5 is quite peppy and whilst I normally don't like double clutch transmissions, the one in the Mini doesn't bother me. Surprisingly the interior space - especially in the back - is almost as bis as the E-Class was, except for the boot of course. It's got LED headlights, Sunroof, Sat-Nav, adaptive Cruise, electric seats and some other stuff you wouldn't necessarily expect in a compact car. Was quite pricey though - had to pay 24.500 Euros with 30.000 km on the clock...

The newer minis are very decent cars, iv had a f56 cooper s that did 60,000 in my ownership and only needed one wheel bearing, iv seen plenty of 1.5 petrol turbos with over 200,000km on them too and still drive very good, front number plate plastic panel is known to fade in the sun and the door shuts at least on the hatchs the rubber door seal use to wear the paint away but that was a warranty recall, hold the switch down on the roof above mirrior and the colours on the centre dash go into party mode and keep changing, also a wheel bearing is 100quid off neobros

I remember recently reading a review about some guy in Australia that bought an old 90s ford falcon. He said, I noticed it had some wheel bearing noise, but I managed to fix that ,by turning up the volume on the stereo.😁

Mini's are great! Have my new Mini 3-door for four months with the same engine, for the road it has enough power for a bit of fun! Build quality amazing.

Idk if it’s just the hatches but if you put them in sport mode and put the window down you can hear a lovely turbo flutter as my 21 plate 1.5 did

I'm not fazed about the cash, even at 15k I'm not bothered when people ask for that. I am clean on it on my end, that's all that matters. Also I hate it when people haggle over the phone, then stop by and try get even more off. I don't deal with those people. Congratz about the MINI Clubman. that is the best handling MINI of the Fxx generation, in my eyes. And yes I have driven them all (work at the Dutch plant).

I had a 2007 Cooper S JCW auto (the auto being pretty rare I think) in red with white wheels, roof and mirrors with the rally style front fog lights. It had 140k on it when I sold it and honestly still regret it! The wife has just bought a 2019 Sport Hatch 1.5 and its bloody lovely to drive.
