Great looking MINI

So how do you feel after todays congestion charge announcement, that the CooperD won't be getting free london entry, and that the £25 level has been scrapped?

Just interested to know if you'd have known this in May, would you still have gone for a CooperD?

That looks very nice indeed! Great bit of speccing!

I ordered sat nav, to justify it I told myself it was an interior upgrade with free nav! Will hardly see a penny of it come trade in probably...

Hi All,
first of all, thanks to all for helping me spec out the new car. Very happy with it!
Regarding the congestion charge - a bit of a bummer. Would I have chosen the Dooper? Let me answer in two parts!
Part 1: I would have gone for a Cooper S I think, however........
Part 2: having now spent a couple of weeks with a Cooper D, driven around 700 miles and really enjoyed it, I'm glad I went for it instead of an S. Not that it drives any better, but the cost savings I'm making really don't allow me to miss traffic lights go performance! I must be getting old!
Currently getting around 53mpg - but the more I drive, the better its getting.
