    After a year with my mrk4 golf gti it looks like in the summer I will be back in a mini. I was looking on autotrader to see what second hand mini prices were now.

    To my surprise you can pick up an 02 cooper s with 36000 miles and good spec for £10k!!! So not sure if it will be a cooper or an s either way i will have a mini in the summer.

    Well done that man - make sure you don't go any earlier than that as there were more problems with 51 plate motors...

    You are right - I am about to try and sell my 02 cooper s (dark silver) with 35000 miles for offers in the region of £10250 - fingers crossed autotrader will prove a successful route to selling cos my new car arrived last week at the dealers.

    Before I bought my Cooper (June 04) I too had a Mk4 Golf 1.8T. Faster in a straight line but everything else a MINI does better :approve: You wont regret the switch , enjoy
