CAR magazine - performance car of the year 2002

...isn't the Mini Cooper S.

Its the Pagini Zonda. OK - I can understand that, it's a £300K hypercar.

2nd is the Ferrari (550 ?). Yep - that's £160K or so.

3rd is the Merc AMG SL - £89K.

4th is the...Mini Cooper S - £14,500.


The cars is beat included the Evo VII, Impreza, Focus RS, Porche Boxter.

I'd call that a pretty damned good result.

Well this morning I will trade my 01 Porsche Boxster S in for a MCS.. I will let you know if the Mini should be 4th and the Porsche @ 12th out of 20th.
I willprobably keep the CAR PCOTY article to keep with when my mates ask why...perhaps I ought to show them my (now very healthy) bank balance.
