Default A few Mini Adventures

Puts Honda dealer prices in perspective...

My Cooper Clubman went in for a 37K miles service on Friday. All servicing costs covered by the TLC XL package - apart from brake pads of course...

New front pads

Should have gone to Specsavers

Still, the missus quites fancies a Mini so I find myself investigating few-years-old Coopers and seeing what you can get for your money.

Really expensive indeed.

Puts Honda's prices into perspective. (Not sure which perspective you were hinting at, is Honda cheap, or expensive?)

I wonder what BMW would have charged for the same job on a Z4?

Took me a long time to change the lights on the Civic, but that's because I made them!
