Mini for commuting

Hi,

I have a 60 mile a day commute (mostly highway). I am thinking of getting a Mini to use for my main car, commuting and weekends. The highish MPG with a high fun factor appeals to me. I was thinking of getting a 2005 5 speed non-S convertible. I thought that had the right balance of price, fun and economy. What do you think?

I would recommend choosing your wheel/suspension depending on the road conditions you drive in.
