You can't park there, now leave!

That looks like one hell of a MINI, what is it?

Hope you got permission to take those photos, Bert.

[Polarbert]

You need permission to take a photo in England. You can take a photo of anyone or anything, and not need permission. Happy to help.

It's the late-2006 'Cooper S Works GP', Warren. (Another zero-depreciation buy, like the CSL was for me.)
444 only made for the UK, out of 2,000 worldwide. Mine is number 1602.
It's the one with no rear seats and a host of other smaller changes to save weight over the 'S Works' model.
218 bhp and 184 lbs-ft.
Supercharged 1598cc, no lag, just a nice strong powerband.
(Mirror covers are being replaced with body-colour ones soon and the red ones kept for resale time.)
