Yeah, point & shoot pretty well sums it up. I just have to be careful where I point it.

What's it like to drive ? My short answer is,it's like driving a go kart. Last fall after not driving my car for too long of a time. I was surprised,how well my car handled. Just point and shoot. Love it. I am really looking forward to having my car on the road again. Cheers

Whenever someone asks me what it's like to drive a Mini, I'll start with the short answer, "It's a hoot!" If I see that they're actually interested, perhaps considering owning one, I give them a more thoughtful... and honest answer. "It requires both hands and both feet and 80% of your concentration—more like riding a motorcycle than driving your average car."

If the conversation gets around to what it's like to own a Mini, well that takes a little longer to explain. I tell them, "Plan on spending more time working on it than a 30 year old sailboat (ask me how I know), and expect to draw more attention then if you were driving the Oscar Myer Wienermobile." 

Anyone else have a better response?
