• My Audi appears to have a terminal failure in the autobox - massive oil leak, now fixed & refilled but still clunky and can't select reverse. Quotes of north of £1k to fix and seeing the car is worth £1.5k at best, looks like time to replace...

    I really fancy an R53 Mini Cooper S, anything I should know? Any other ideas for budget approx £3k? Needs 4 seats, some practicality, less than 100k miles, reasonably sporty & individual.
