For those of you who do not know me I loved very bit of driving my Coopers that I have owned and hated the cooper's'.

On the twisty highland roads I frequently showd BBR and JCW cooper's's a clean pair of heels and sent them home with their tails between their legs,so I did not expect just too much from the GP.


Wel well how wrong was I ??????

what a car!!!!!! it drives like a F ing quick cooper.

this car is the mutts nuts and I LOVE IT.

Nenah wishes it had the glove box as everything falls out and hits her and all I do is grin.

The catch for the rear cover is cheep and nasty,other than that WOW!!!!!!!!!

sounds like riot John

more pics please

Although you're a bare faced liar, I remember keeping up with you more than once, but also remember how much fun it was too

No Glove box on UK cars?

What's with all the glove box talk? Doesn't it come with an enclosed glovebox? or is it a solid panel on a right hand drive, and a parcel shelf on the passenger side.


And thanks for boosting our expectations on the car.

Goonery....get some sleep tonight!
