    Feet were made to fit car pedals. If we were meant to walk, we'd have pogo sticks for legs

    Not if you buy yourself a large brown paper bag and shove it over head after applying two holes large enough to look out of to see where your going

    Easy solution is to just buy a Cooper and boycott the S

    I think the Cooper will fulfill most peoples needs anyway and IMHO it looks SO much better than the S simply because of those hideous front and rear bumper extension thingymajigs

    I haven't seen an F56 yet either. At least they're instantly recognisable with the new daylights

    I spotted a PW Cooper on the M9 on Friday night. I also spotted a Thunder Grey F56 on Tuesday at Barnton, I spotted it in the distance and although I thought it may possibly have been an F56 I couldn't be 100% till I was about 200yds from it. It's certainly grown on me and tbh I can't wait till the JCW is released, might even wait to see if they build a GP3

    GP is traditionally a run out model so will have a wait a while

    sadly, they won't all have these. They are an expensive option that come with led headlights.
