MINI Cooper S
I've been using the MINI mostly for pleasure since getting the Rover in July. It's great to unwind from an unpleasant day at work with a good drive along some decent roads. It seems to be running well, although I noticed it's started to drop a small amount of oil again. Looks like it's coming from around the sump plug, so hopefully just a leaking washer...
I intend to keep it going over winter but try and avoid using it too much on salted roads. I'd like to renew my RoSPA driving test in the new year and will use the MINI for driving practise and the test itself.
At some point I'll take a wire brush to the sub frames and suspension components and treat them to a coat of hammerite. Those items seem to get scruffy quickly on these and mine is no exception.
