This is the state of my poor Mini One designated daily driver. It is in the garage being mended because some jerk in a BMW 5 hit it on the front offside and totalled the wing, headlight and steering!
So my daily driver at the moment is the trusty Puma!

Still running my Puma 1.7, despite being overrun by ULEZ :rolleyes:. I tend to be a bit strategic about driving it to keep costs down, altho I am also noting where the local cameras are and when and where I trigger the charge!

Part of me wonders why I didn't go for a 1.6 which is compliant, or why couldn't Ford/Yamaha tweaked the 1.7 a little more to get the NOx emissions down, but it's too late now! If it ever gives up the ghost I guess I'd look at a R56 Cooper S or maybe an Abarth 500, but from memory of road testing it at launch, it carried over the standard Fiat gearbox which was a bit of a porridge stirrer, at least compared to the Puma. Plus I've heard they get nicked a lot...

My ULEZ compliant motor is a Honda CBR500R :cool:
