I'm going to test drive Mini Cooper today
People I've spoken with don't have as much good to say about the newer ones, as opposed to the R53's. I can't say, personally, since I haven't driven one. I hope the reports are wrong, and if they aren't I hope MINI gets back on track. Let us know what model you end up test-driving, and what your impressions are!

I'm still getting an FR-S, but I think there's room enough in this world for more than one lightweight, 200-ish horsepower sports coupe/ hatch! In fact, as far as I'm concerned, when it comes to great cars... the more, the merrier! :happy0180:
