    It's funny I have a US spec MINI I imported from Texas. It makes me look slower.

    LOL

    Had to have my MINI's state inspection done last week, they think it has 167,000 miles on it. Not sure what they thought about it only being 17 degrees outside:arf:

    You can get the dealer to switch that over if you want. I had mine switched over, I don't think you can pick and choose though (temp in F but odometer in KM)

    I have thought of getting things switched to imperial, but I can convert on the fly. Plus my MINI has not been in a MINI shop for over 2 years:Thumbsup:

    So I have decided, in my mind anyway:rolleyes:, what I'm going to call Motoring Alliance when I speak. Not M/A, not MA.C, MA, would be OK I guess, nope non of them, I'm calling it, Motoring, EH:aureola:

    I've never been to Canada but have been told I sound Canadian. I do pronounce it PRO-sess, similar to how the British say it. I know a lot of people pronounce it pra-sess though so maybe that's the American way.
