Shame I don't have a very firm grasp of English :oops:

The BX is an excellent car for a small family (which is why I will have to get rid of the Mini next year).

jon, a very good mate of mine has still got both his and his wife's mini and have found its a real struggle to get enough gear in it for there little one! (3 months old!!) they even specifically bought a silly expensive pushchair to fit!! and they still end up using there megane more!! althoguh he has now bought a roof box for the mini! a little fruitless imo as the extra weight on the piddly mini gutters and the loss of speed coupled with the minimal weight allowed in it etc! they would have been better of loading his wifes car with all the gear and he taking the mini up on is own loL!
but the bx does has an advantage over them! the boot is positively huge! and its very comfy! all i need to do is get mine to start heheheh! :wink: :lol:

(I used to have a pair of mini's back when i passed my test! a 79 t plate 1000, then a 77s plate 1100 which i oplayed witha little!! :D )

Ha ha, im allowed in here! Yey :D


Bet i wasn't missed though!
Tell you what this new forum is pretty different Luke, i like it though, much easier to read! Shame to loose the old one though, i'm guessing it could result in a loss of members at the end of the day?

Whole forum feels really fresh though! Good to see the garage section is back. Any other plans?
