cooper d

[peterpeter]

looking to buy a cooper d soon


thinking about a used/2010 car or even a brand new one depending on the deal I can get

what Id like to know is when the new leaner engine came in? was it post sept 10 cars that are the ones I should be looking for?


Or would it be better going for a used 2008 car at about 12k instead?- is the new car much better?

thanks in advance

cheers guys


really helpful
probably going down the brand new route because the new Cooper D has the BMW engine, has 99gkm Co2 so is Congestion charge free and road tax free.
nearly made the mistake of getting a convertible then noticed only girls drive them so went back to the hatch.

I quite fancy a Cooper SD myself. Although you wont get congestion charge relief on that.

thought about that but would probably end up thrashing it and then you might aswell get an S anyway
