But as others have said, if your suspension is the same set up on both (the main change was the dampers) then it's most likely down to weight and weight distribution (the S also has a slightly different track to the One and Cooper).

Thats what I thought at first but I have a few of them bends where I know how fast I can go round them(everyone has them

) so I can compare quite well and I can't even match the speeds I could pull round them in the One??

yeh i'm thinkin it's got to be the dampers as everything else as far as I know is the same
