Out of curiosity what would people think us more fun a cooper s turbo or a older supercharged one. Also in real terms is there much performance difference?

Hmm, i got both, there very different ways,
Supercharged one is the most fun! IMO
The turbo car is more refined and looses a bit of feel.

General opinion is that the supercharged is more fun, but the turbo cars are quicker. From what I've seen, the turbo cars are quicker round a track, but slower at the drag strip as they struggle to launch due to the high torque low down.
