I did set myself up for that :-) And of course you're right, when it comes to 5000 lb vehicles, engine size does matter - on the other hand, I don't drive a mini, but I also own a triumph spitfire and it's a blast with only a 1147cc engine- 67 HP of fun on the turns. Hey, the joy is in the handling!
