    What is wrong with you? Rhetorical.

    I was pleasantly surprised as to how good the brakes and steering felt

    I did the same Greg :) We bought a ‘13 model nearly 2 years ago now. So far, so good… She knew exactly what she wanted, I just had to make sure we found a good one and pay for it!

    Steering is very sharp, handles like it’s on rails. I’ve been considering an ‘05 ‘S’ (last of the supercharged) for myself for some affordable, fun motoring…:D

    I'm with you on that one Dan. R53 is a really good car - a few years ago, it was't too hard finding a good low mileage R53 Cooper S. Now, really scarce. The major service on them is very pricey as you have remove the front end.

    I couldn't buy any other modern Mini personally except the original Frank Stephenson design. I think the exterior and interior are bang on. I'd love a black JCW example.

    I drove the electric version recently and that was a really good drive. I just couldn't get past the overall looks, although some of the detailing is nice.
