I was keen to buy SHMBO an SLK a few years back
This was politely resisted. She was keen on a Fiat 500, before the Abarth was available locally. A test drive ruled out the rather tinny F500.
However the Cooper S filled the bill and as a model changeover was happening an attractive price was quickly negotiated on a BRG model, white roof and twin white bonnet stripes - very Cooper!
It's turned out to be a popular purchase - for both of us!
