I fucking love them. I want to, eventually, get one of the Cooper S's. Looks very nice, and pretty fast i imagine.

they handle amazingly, power steering in them is so light... downsides being they are a typical hairdressers car and with the power steering being that light, you cant really feel whats happening, not a "drivers" car if you get me...... always hot birds driving them :)

Very good cars, excellent to drive & hold their value amazingly!!

But you will look like an estate agent.

I drove one of the supercharged ones and was gonsmacked at how well it stuck to the road. Not as quick as I was hoping but awesome grip and handling as well as feeling extremely solid

LOL. Your white writing had me there tbh.

I like them, original interior, good looks (if you go for the right model) average performance, but excellent handling.

FAIL answer tbh.

How did you arrive at this opinion after arguing such a case for the Fiesta the other day?! Surely a ford fiesta cant be that much better than a new mini?

lol, i was looking at a Mini Cooper S in green, and then putting JCW pack on and black stripes etc. looked awsome on the config, but £24K !!!

Don't get me wrong buddy lol, i drove my ex's mums mini.. and it handled like a go-kart.

But it was an automatic and i didnt really feel any major grunt to it lol

As said top handling but slow for what's under the bonnet.

I would rather an old shape mini.
my brother has a new shape and its ok, just baffles me how they can call it a mini when its the same size as a fiesta

The John Cooper S works one is awsome, even the standard S's are good imo
