Your cooper S experience

Great report.. cheers.

my Cooper had 6k miles before reluctant sale - now waiting for 10th Spetember S delivery....

Gearbox - I found it become even smoother after about 4k miles... although some v.tight corners required droping to first - second did not have enough grunt - suspect S will be Ok !!?

Wheels - I had 16" on the Cooper (they were great).. but I felt the 17" on the S I test drove was exactly as smooth - but with more grip.... I have always been paranoid about curbing alloys - but hey it's part of the deal of owning a new car ??

Isofx - (probably not a popular comment with the family types) - but I'm dammed if I am gonna let anybody under the age of 16 anywhere near my S........

Worgy

I've got the dammn thing, I love it and it's a right little stonker...
