Don't flatter yourself. It took about four seconds to check the Mini band.
I'd looked at the Richmond website previously. I can understand how the
thought of somebody proving you wrong by actually bothering to spend the
tiniest effort on basic research galls you, though.

Dodge, dodge, dodge... Anyway - the old Cooper S, in band F, was a bit
sh.t, it's true. Still, that'll be the rather vast amounts of lard it has
to drag around whilst pretending to be small outside. At least it doesn't
have to pretend to be small when you get in the damn thing. It manages that
quite well.

What "Beetle auto" would that be? I don't see any mention of anything other
than the Cooper S in your post. Perhaps you could point it out?
