Nice car, but not sure how many Mini lovers you will find on a Subaru forum . I think they are great but not very practical for anything other than 2 dwarfs .

Get it on the track and show the big boy's how it's done .

Welcome by the way and I hope you like scoobynet.

I liked them. Wife had a Basic Mini Cooper for a while and we both liked it. Only sold it as she did'nt feel safe on the motorway when driving past the big trucks. Fair enough

I have driven a cooper s works and was pretty impressed with the power in the little beast. You can feel the BM build quality in it, the only downside was the set of 18's on the one i drove really dragged it about. Looked good though.

I will happily take the 730 off your hands, just sign the V5 and leave it on the passenger seat and i'll, be along shortly

I love them but they're too small if it's going to be your main car

I've got a '96 Mini, I love it, and come on Scoobynet more than the Mini forums!

Would love a new S Works

Sadly got to let my Hartge Cooper S go, In the 40,000 miles I have done in it I have managed trackdays and Santa Pod, anyway it has to go as Tuesday and I'll have a nice Black Jaguar S Type R.

I like the Mini - driven a Cooper and a guy at work has a Cooper S Works. Nice little car, only let down by the very harsh ride, which seems to be a modern beemer / mini trait. Good car though.

Horrible travesty of a car with whingey little engines and a ludicrously small boot. The memory of that engine whining away reminds me of nails being scraped down a black board, not to mention the overly harsh ride.
