Thanks for all the input

Where I live there are lots of steep hills and curvy roads that climb straight up mountains for ten minutes or so. This is a LOT of fun if you are in a vehicle with oomph; however my old 86 trooper (which just lost its engine) would not go over 37 on these roads with the accelerator to the floor in 3rd or 4th gear, much to the aggravation of myself and anyone behind me . I want my next vehicle to ZOOM up and I've heard that Coopers do even without the S - just wanted some owner verification that if I do indeed get my dream car I will no longer be honked at on mountains.... !
