I havent been able to find any 0-60 (or 0-62 as they seem to be these days) for the new MC and particlularly the new MCS?? that goes for MPG figures too

These figures aren't in the brochures (yet) as they were printed before the Automatics were released, but the MINI website has been updated for a while now.

Figures are here for Cooper (http://www.mini.co.uk/UK/html/model_range/mini_cooper/techSpec.html) and here for Cooper S (http://www.mini.co.uk/UK/html/model_range/mini_cooper_s/techSpec.html).

(Obviously weren't looking very hard! ;) )

:wink:

Why is there such a big difference in the 0-60 time between the cooper auto and manual, but only a 0.2sec difference between the auto and manual of the mcs??

...following on from what i just wrote i have noticed that the price of the auto option is £1085 on the mini configurator (altough my dealer said it was £1060) but when you click on the links above the difference between the on the road price for the manual and the OTRP for the auto is £1245. I know you usually get taxed the full amount for auto's but thats only gona be an extra £80 on top of the tax for the manual??so why the £1245???

The actual cost of the Automatic Transmission Option is £1,060.00 on both Cooper and Cooper S.

Add to this the £25.00 increase in Road Fund Licence on the Cooper and you get £1,085.00 (no increase for Cooper S).

Absolutely no idea where £1,245.00 comes from!? :confused:
