Congrats. Its a real cool car. Its small, but it has a huge personality. Im getting the Fiat 500 when it becomes readily available.

Thanks man, yeah I'm really digging it. I've had mostly "sports" and muscle cars over the years, so its a departure for me. The car does have a personality much larger than itself though, and I can easily see why people love their Mini's.

Good news is that now you've become a smaller radar target, literally!

I took a few quick pictures of the go kart today. It was bright as living hell outside, so they didn't come out great though...

I'm still having a blast in this thing, it handles like its on rails literally, and its really quick. I'm getting 31mpg average so far. Not bad for an engine with 110 miles on it...

Are you gonna paint the Union Jack flag on the roof??

Don't know if it's available here in the States but in Europe they have "go fast" parts for this car and no one laugh at it I can promise you.

Yeah you can get all sorts of flags and graphics for the roof. Not sure what I'll do yet. I was originally thinking the Jolly Roger, but its not a very unique idea, so I'm still trying to find something...
