    & with a couple of tweaks that has kept me more than happy for nearly 14 years. As you say it's the handling for me as well, the R50/3 is superb drivers car

    I still feel the same way about my MINI as I did back in early 2004 when I passed Henry Bros in Glasgow & saw a brand new yellow Cooper on 17 'S'spokes sitting in the showroom window. I was looking to brighten up my life after a piss poor year & that car made me say 'want'
