20,000 miles passed today while doing 100mph in celebration... I am certain that the engine is better in every way now that it was at 10,000 miles. Smoother, more powerful/flexible and more economical too. And it still uses no oil whatsoever.

BTW - i have to say i totally agree - my coop was 1 yesterday and with 17500 miles on the clock it seems more responsive and i get better fuel economy now than i ever did!

18000 on the clock today, and my One's doing fine.
Better MPG, and slightly better acceleration.

Ah well, the toy is fantastic :) Been a bit quiet since I got it as I've been driving it too much! I expected it to be good, and that I'd miss the Coop, but when I saw it in the dealer that was it - love at first sight! Every gear, it's soooo quick, and thats while bedding it in. Love the noise too, just enough to let you know. And it looks great! Just looks the dogs bits...

Will post pics later today...
