I am gonna wait about 3 years, and then plump for the JCG S works upgrade, will be about ready for it then I think with the increased insurance costs etc..

I had another test drive of an S today, and this time it was a nice sunny day. What a beast.

I am pleased to report it drove straight as an arrow.

If you're planning to wait a while before getting a works upgrade, check with JCG for any mileage restrictions.

I know on the classic minis that in certain cases they would not upgrade anything over a certain mileage.

Good Luck

The beast has landed

My dealer was teasing me with the possibility that they will be an authorized JC dealer. How nice, to take my car in for an oil change, and have it returned with an extra 40hp!
