I'd have one. But only if I wasn't bothered about rear seats or boot space

Apparently they arent very economical (a cooper s really wont be down the motorways)

Will be terrible on fuel though Colin Plus, will bump the price up. I'm looking to spend no more than 10k on a car i mainly use to get to work. If it was something i'd keep in a garage and use at weekends then i'd gladly spend a bit more.
Out of 20 people, 16 of those think they are gay Puts me off a little bit! My other option is a Mk 5 Golf GT TDI.

Workmates that I drove racks up a fair mileage in his, I dont think its THAT bad on fuel tbh.
He does about 500 miles a week in his & its been fine. Doesnt guzzle too badly, can be drove sensible & has the power for when you want it.
I voted Gay btw Well in my views there not gay, more a very good burds motor, their aimed with those with a mutt tash in mind.
Cooper S is a fun car though, that would be the one id like to nick off my burd the most!!
