no I am not jealous. too long geared and a crap engine. also mini's have had some shocking reviews on the build quality. check out one of the mini forums for a laugh.

i have come across a couple of coopers, they must be damn heavy because i managed to get past at 50-60mph and carry on gaining distance. Im sure you will be happy with this car, im getting an F reg Pug 205 GRD tomoz until i leave for australia, so yours is gonna be better than my car!

22s to 100mph is all you need to know. 60 time is low due to only requiring one gear change. 40mph in 1st is far too long

for the price. yes it is. it is shockingly slow in todays world for a hot hatch costing as much as the mini does. even the 200hp ones are over 17s to 100mph

everyone says the Corsa GSi would be over priced at 15k, but surely it will eat a standard cooper S to 100mph?

and yes the Mini is built by BMW, and does have a VERY strong chassis, but for 15k you dont even get a rev counter

Thats a flippin joke!!
