This months Autocar have written a report on the April release of the Cooper Works for general sale! Now, when you go to a Mini dealer, this can be one of those tasty little extras available! Juan Pablo Montoya has an S and is desperate for the conversion (costing £3-4,000!), but my fav. quotes would have to be-
"It's so rapid in the intermediate gears that even a well-driven 911 would now have difficulty putting clean air between itself and a Works S on a decent twisty road.":cool::D:p:I
"Certainly there'd be no question of it being quick enough to live with a Civic Type-R or a Golf R32, or even a Focus RS at a pinch - so long as you were prepared to research fully the furthest edges of the chassis' broad repertoire, ie thrash the nuts off it in the name of honour".
YEEEEE-HAAAA, Rob, cancel the wedding, I'm ordering one!!:D:D:D
