Having recently spotted this Mini driving instructors car I just had to take a few Mini pics...
Driving a Mini must be the most cool way to drive, but learning to drive in a Mini must be totally 'awesome'. It's almost worth paying for a few driving lessons so you can get to drive the thing Forget about driving lessons in the granny approved and boring Missan(!) Licra... If you're interested in real Mini driving lessons in a proper Mini car, along with reliable, patient, friendly and professional DSA approved driving instructor, and live in or near to Nottingham or Mansfield, please give the Mini driving instructor a call on 01623 487 225 or 07977 890 855. Better still, take a peek over the website www.redfivedrive.co.uk P.S. Don't forget to click on the thumbnails for a bigger pic ![]() |

Funnily enough, I bought my girlfriend a Mini to learn to drive in last year. It was the perfect car for the job. She hates driving anything else now and is begging to get on the insurance for my Works GP when it arrives next month

Hi FM,
Isn't that the beauty of the insurance market sometimes what with their refusal to insure younger drivers to drive your pride and joy, guess you are gutted that only you will be able to drive it...hehehe ![]() |

Hi Redfivedrive, I think 80,000 miles is wishful thinking after my wife has been driving about in your Mini for a few miles!
I will of course sent out an APB to warn other motorists to keep the roads clear Talking of which, did you really get 80,000 miles out of one clutch whilst teaching learners to drive? |

Don't worry, am sure my wife will be able to go through another Mini clutch in record time
I've had a chat with her over this so will give you a call next week if that's OK Actually, four clutches in 80,000 miles doesn't so bad considering the amount of abuse they must get from leaner drivers. I remember taking driving lessons for the 1st time and being determined to overcome tha tha th that kangaroo effect by increasing pressure on the throttle pedal - which I later learned was a fruitless exercise Slightly off-topic, next year you ought to take a bit of time out and go to one or two of the Mini car events such as Stanford Hall or Sandon Hall which were very impressive. |
