Going Topless!!!!

[jockey]

DH and I have spent the past few months looking for a new car for me as my little Mini Cooper is not big enough for the pram we have ordered for our pending arrival!!! We looked at everything - people carriers, jeeps, the new BMW 3 Series but nothing has excited me!!!!

Today however we pick up the new car its a MINI COOPER S CONVERTIBLE!!!!! Totally impracticle but hey..you still have to have a little fun!! We have decided to keep the Jane 3 wheeler pram and we are going to buy a little Quinny pram that folds down small enough to fit in the boot of the mini - we can use this as the travel pram too!!

All I need now is a bit of sunshine in Belfast so that I can get a chance to put the hood down!!!!!

Sounds like an excellent compromise!

Sounds great I'm sure you'll enjoy many topless miles! I have a Volvo C70 convertible and I have the top down all the time, even if I just pop to the shops.

Jill, my DD will be so jealous. She is learning to drive in a mini at the moment and says thats the car for her. Would love to see some piccies

I hope the little one remembers to keep their mouth shut as you drive along with the top down our they will have a mouth full of insects

I should check the boot size with the top down if you haven't already done it - quite often on convertables the top folds down into the boot space, so limiting the room for anything else in there.

I have to say when I saw the thread title I thought it was going to be about something entirely different

Now I have got over my disappointment, I hope you enjoy your new car

- thought the title would turn a few heads!!! Picked the new car up yesterday and totally love it!! The boot space is even smaller than my last mini but just big enough to get the little Quinny travel stroller into!!

Also had to get aseat belt harness for my westie Jock just incase he decided to jump out!! Will post a pic when I get a chance!!
