I have an R53 JCW with a couple of extra bits (modified bpv and 3+ crank pulley) and it absolutely flies!!!! It's so quick, it really is.

however, 54k miles on the clock and I'm swapping it for an R56 Cooper S on friday. I test drove it and really liked it. It wont be as quick but It'll be interesting seeing what the real difference is when I get driving it.

Will report back when I've had a good drive in it.
