It suits me.
A cigarette lighter is in the car along with an ashtray (although the ashtray can be removed)
We have moved to Quimper recently from the UK. During a visit to the BMW garage to order a new 330d for my hubbie, I wandered around and fell in love with the mini. We had been planning to buy for me a little van - a citroen or renault - for practicality etc. But I buzzed around the mini one and I decided that we liked each other. Bear in mind that my perception of cars is of something to get us from a to b in reasonable comfort and speed. My husband's perceptions are far more than that of course (hence the BMW affair), and he encouraged me, as did the sales guy, to take it for a spin.
So, my new mini arrived and it's absolutely lovely and classy to drive around in. It feels like a supremely made machine and people's heads turn all the time as I whizz, carefully, around. I don't know about any downsides yet as we have been together just for a few weeks but it is fitting and growing on me well.
I don't rate the BMW franchise though and its service approach, but that is another story.
