The best car I’ve ever had! yes

We have 2, my little brother has the other one! Mini Coopers S's with Limited slip diff (A must have @ £150!), sports s/w, 16 Wheels & sports suspension.

They are fantastic cars & make fantastic track day tools!

Incredibly wet but they were awesome, we ran in all three sessions on the day. Pushing on a bit to hard through the Craner Curves caused an off when chasing our instructor yikes....yikes!!

High recommend one as an everyday car but more than capable on the track without any modifications!

Here are some static pictures of the cars;

like the black one with 'park lane' 16"s!

i've been thinking of getting a set of those for my r53.

i've got the slippery diff on my r53 this weekend it wa torquesteering a bit uner full cceleration in the wet but it's worth it for the 'glue-covered rails' ( hehe ) cornering. it's probably even better on the (wider tracked??) r56.
