So people are only seeing my images 50% of the time? I always check and they work for me, but I know that it doesn't apply to everyone.

Yeah, I can't see your example in this thread but I can see most of your other ones. It's stupid and one of the things that Google has been terrible about ever since they abandoned Picasa.

Ohh it was the empty img tags. Either way, Google doesn't always work even if you do it right.

So.... what to do next with the mini...
Bring it in for service early? Since I am what services were performed or if the oil is the correct spec... or
I am sort of curious about -1" wheels and 's as opposed to 205s, I think it would make the car even more of a riot to drive... but... TPMS sensors+ wheel spec thanks to the giant calipers makes wheel selections impossible, luck.

Went to fleet week and took the mini as opposed to uber or whatever which was a nightmare. Fun fact In SF, if you have a small car like the mini you get essentially “mini only” parking spots in between driveways. 5/7 parked right near by vs “donating” $75 for public parking. Yes that’s how much they charge now.
Still really digging the car.

Negative comments for anyone sort of being clowncar curious.
1. Non JohnnyP approved ride over rough stuff.
2. subpar mpg for the size, this thing should be at 32-34mpg but it it is at 26/28
3. Smallish gas-tank (see above)
4. Lack of LSD, I do think it should be standard on the JCW. This thing has quite a bit of power, and when you go One does notice lack of LSD, and constant power cuts from the ESP, unless you put it into the special sport mode, at which point it is tire destroying fun.
5. :205:s are handicappy. Given that this is a JCW it should have s or even 235/245s. But they are throwing this on the 50k GP probably...
Overall I'd say none of those are breakers for someone looking for some fun in their commute/hooning.
2.5/5 of my only complaints can be fixed by going -1" on the wheel size and +10-20mm on the tire size.

like the paid option for their best quality and smaller size show shitty quality?

I started using imgur and it works, but the process to post them is a bit of a pain (easier from desktop). I upload automatically from the phones to Google photos and copy them to imgur from there.

This is a full size check in suitcase+ some flower crap a 12 pack of white claw, and $120 worth of groceries. All in the “tiny unusable trunk”.
I didn’t even use the second “seat folded forward for extra storage setting”
This car is perfect for couple or a young couple. Just the perfect amount of space and epic size benefits with just minimal drawbacks.

Yep, the point was it’s kind of odd there is a false floor, there that bag is 25/30lbs of shit. And there is another bag on top.
1 lb of bacon
2lbs of salmon
1 lb of pasta
2 lbs of flour
4 yogurts
Bottle of wine
1lb of butter
Bunch of useless fruits and veggies
Etc etc

It's an acceptable size. No spare is the tradeoff I guess. But nobody wants to change their tire on the side of the road like a poor anyway.max225 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 10:22 pm
