Greetings-

I am a new user and not yet an owner. I have been reading and researching the MCS and I test drove one last week. I really loved it. I guess that I would buy it in a minute. However, I drive a 1998 Red Mitsubishi GSX Turbo-All-wheel-Drive with only 36,000 mile on it.

I have owned some neat cars which include my first one a beautiful MGA, a Peugeot, a Mustang, a Porshe 924, and an Audi Quattro. So, when I look at the cost of a MCS my mind runs this mantra “great little car fun to drive..handles well…cute…pound for pound expensive.”

My question is should I just buy one

because it is fun? Also, I read a number of negatives

in the chat about rattles, mechanical failure, etc.

I would like to hear from those who own a MINI S and have owned MINIs.

Thanks,

Still undecided
