In this episode, we’ve got a little bit of everything from the MINI world. First up, MINI Global has yet another new leader. At this point, I’m convinced they just keep the boss’s name written in chalk on the office door — makes for quicker updates when the next one rolls in.

Next, we head to India, where one of the newest MINI owners just celebrated his 7th birthday. Yep, you heard that right — MINI fever starts early! (And honestly, what were the rest of us doing at 7 besides building Lego cars?)

Finally, we wrap things up with a MINI that had… let’s just say a slight handling “issue.” Spoiler alert: when your car drives more like a pogo stick than a go-kart, it’s probably time to take a closer look.

So tune in for news, laughs, and a reminder that in the MINI community, there’s always something worth motoring about.
