Forget the Cooper S - try and find a 58 plate or later John Cooper Works edition (i.e. the one with the engine and suspension mods not just the body kit). The extra turbo boost, better brakes and handling make this far more fun than the S. I bought one "for my wife" after she finally refused to drive our old RRS because it kept breaking down!

@Singe - unfortunately the budget wont stretch to a later car. This will be the third car in a two driver household, so its really more of a luxury than necessity (Apparently!!) FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy

The wife has a mini, which we bought nearly new 4 years ago, it is so much fun, and despite being twice as big as the original, still gas that go cart feel, first job was sticking the minilite replicas on it, then we browsed the minispares catalogue and got I nice stainless steel decat exhaust and a blufin remap, goes like stink!!
