Because most minis are driven by...?

No. There is no excuse. If you can't reverse a flippin' mini without hitting something, you shouldn't be driving...

Buy it as a present for Sarah............

I was waiting for that one...

My Nanny had an original automatic mini and she was completely unable to park it on the driveway (which was considerably wider than the car), my Grandad had to do it for her.

As for reversing small cars without hitting things, people in glass houses...

But did you have to mention hitting things less than 24 hours before ST-Day :(

@Chris: Hairdressers...no wait, Estate Agents...erm...people that work for Red Bull?

Ow heck, I don't know. Why don't you enlighten us (he said, providing Chris with more than enough rope to hang himself).

What I meant was:

Because most minis are driven by. That is, driven past, and not used to being parked.

(Phew, I think I might have got away with it)
