So she went for a Mini Cabriolet then?

Did you know that the Mini Cabriolet is the only car which you cannot take a driving test in at the moment! I heard it is because the visibility is so poor!

MGF - pretty wee car and OK for a girl. I wouldn't be surprised if they are the only model to emerge from the whole MG Rover thing with new owners and continuing production.

As for the comments on the Mini Convertible - M7 Cos is right because this recently became the only car in the 70 year history of the driving test to be banned. The Test Examiners have decided that rear visibility is too obscured.
