Nicely prepared car off course..... however that host is beyond annoying.

Ordered so by a Judge

I found Pete's You Tube channel just as the COVID-19 pandemic got rolling here. He did a blog everyday for I believe a few months. Not just Mini/MINI stuff, but general car related subjects, usually around 20 minutes tops. He's a great speaker, I recommend his channel strongly.

Yeah, I did see puffs from the tailpipe. Maybe the exhaust wasn't fully warmed up - the shot could have been taken before the drive. Didn't look oily or sooty to me.

Funny how the host's grin was getting the best of him - he tried hiding it because he couldn't stop grinning ear to ear.

Thanks for that. 
Did you see the amount of smoke coming out?

Ran across this on YouTube. Host's first drive in a replica Copper S.
