A MINI with Rolls-Royce livery. How does that sound? Like the sort of car you’d happily sell your house and a couple of members of your family for, that’s what.

Details are a little sketchy at the moment. But I’ll pester Peter Vardy for more details later on if you promise not to drool over your keyboard and lick your monitor.

But just imagine it! One of the world’s most prestigious and respected marques. A brand that has long been synonymous with superior quality. And it’s getting together with Rolls-Royce.

Sorry. I just couldn’t resist it.
