So, I've been having some car trouble, lately. I scheduled a visit with the folks up at the dealership, today. Turns out it's going to require a part they don't have handy, so my car will be there over the weekend and then for a day or two more. In the interim, I have a loaner vehicle - a mini clubman s. it's like a mini, but GIGANTIC.

new key style: weird. new blinker operation: fracking annoying. strange radio UI: strange. cargo space: GIGANTIC. sport button: sport button? this requires investigation. (it apparently changes the engine timing programming for more aggressive driving response, i guess)

the reduction in visibility via the rear view mirror is noticeable, but not bad.

yeah, from what i've heard, i'd probably stick with just the aux input rather than full-on ipod interfacing, if i were getting a new mini.

oh, what i WANT the blinkers to do (among other things) is to be able to turn off my left blinker by either tapping the right blinker control (as it does now) OR by triggering the left blinker again, so it works like a pushbutton.
