Do you remember the 3 door Chevy Suburban (US)?
Series 6 Suburbans had just a driver's door on the left and 2 doors on the right.
One that I've almost forgotten that I've owned.

I had a 1972. Mine was an old work truck, not anywhere near this nice.

I love the old GM trucks. Mine is a 1972, also. It's been my utility vehicle for the last 11+ years.

Do any of you know anything about the current generation Mini Cooper S? Will it be ruinous if I get one as a daily driver/winter car?

I could do without these -





But maybe they’re not standard.

Must be an option. I don’t think I’ve seen models that have that, but then again, I haven’t been looking at the taillights much.

I've seen those lights on a few Minis here in Ireland, I don't think people here would pick them as an optional extra...

I think I’m just going to search for a Golf R with a sunroof and navigation. It makes the most sense and I know I like how sporty Volkswagens drive. Plus, it’ll be easy enough for my mother to get in and out of if I ever need to drive her somewhere. Though she might have gotten a kick out of me getting a Mini—growing up, her father had an Austin Mini for a while. Would be a nice emotional connection to the man (like my Omegas).

Okay, I know that's a 2013, which is probably not a great idea since it's the first model year, but it doesn't even have 40,000 miles! And look at that price.
