    Mini to settle on six models

    Just the six models then?  That's a shame.  I was so looking forward to the Mini Sedanca and the Mini Landaulet and the Mini four-door Coupe (CLS-rival) and the Mini Pick-Up (no pun) and the Mini Panel Van (and the LWB Panel Van) and the Mini Spyder and the Mini Panel Van High Roof and the Mini Panel Van High Roof LWB and the Mini Limousine and the Mini Targa and the Mini.......

    You can now imagine how disappointed I am.

    What something to rival a Smart or C1/Aygo/107?

    The good news is that Fablon still do a lovely range of stick on plastic wood we can use to make our Countryman look just like a 60's original.

    And we can create our own Mokes by buying an angle grinder and taking the roof and doors off a Clubman, immediately improving its looks and avoiding the need to buy the optional pack with air con.

    Is this new latest Mini bigger than the old Maxi ? - .

    If they introduce a Maxi range it'll be bigger than a Routemaster
