IMO your giving your dealer a get out of jail free card if the car has any engine related problems. I'd only go for it if you can return the car to stock without any sign of the installation being done, which is probably unlikely.

Have you considered a Dooper?

Sorry to sound negative but I don't see the point of getting an S for learner car, if I had learnt to drive in one I'd have been gutted when I passed my test cos I wouldn't have been able to afford one for myself or the insurance! It'd be awful moving from a Cooper S to say a 1 litre Corsa.....

Then there's the boy racers and old grannies learning to drive in something that does 0-60 in 7 seconds...

Yes I understand your point with the Dooper - however just like my MINI D there a pain driving at slow speeds as they push you along - as many of my pupils have found out coming upto the ends of roads and not being able to stop - the petrols slow down loads more and there's no engine push!

Also 52pence is slit better than £1.16 per liter when my last years fuel bill was £3500!

And a CooperS is only fast went u want it to be - I will have dual controls you know ;-)
