I am thinking about trading in my "S" and order a cooper cabrio instead.
Would you?

Catch Ya Later,
Cooper "S" I Do

Parc77 · Jun 10th, 2004, 10:36 PM

I thought about that too. I know id always be wanting the S convertable and at the end of the day id rather have an S than than a cooper convertable. I think id miss the power to much and it'd be like going back a step.

I also thought about this-Power wouldn't bother me so much by doing a Step down-Only thing putting me off is being called a Hair dresser!!

Also the Big downside with the Cabrio is it looks Pants when your driving about with the roof UP-

Have to agree - hairdresser with under powered car lol
I like the convertable it does look good could only ever have a JCW S or an S model but (haviing had a convertable in the past) It's great to have the roof down at the moment but after maybe another 3 or 4 weeks of the year, the rest of the time it will be up due to crap British weather Anyone ever tried driving with a parker on and the hood up when its fully zipped up - good job they have parking sensors as you wont see a dam thing with the hood up.

Are you CWAZY

What's wrong with you wobbert

Have you been drinking too much again

The cabrio is a good looking car but I think you'll miss the power too much

Have you considered waiting for the S cabrio..

Hey Dora,

I am thinking about it since a couple of days.
Wanna wait till i can see all the colour combinations in the flesh.
I fancy the hot orange with a blue roof.

Hot Orange

, don't like orange

The Black Eye Purple is nice though

And I saw this lovely metallic green at the Motorshow, that changes colour depending on the view angle, class!

I got worried there for a moment Robbert. When you put MCC, I thought you meant a MCC Smart.

Anyway. Convertible MINI? Well your career at Toni & Guy must really be taking off.

fergusor · Jun 11th, 2004, 11:17 AM

I went to my dealer last night in Farnborough and was told the wait for any Convertible goes into March next year... is this the same around the country?

Richard.

badboyzbadboyz · Jun 11th, 2004, 12:06 PM

By the end of September when the weather is getting bad and the noisy, cold roof is up .... then your'll be missing ur MCS. Personally I would only consider a convertable as a second car in this country (UK) but I can't say I know what the weather is like in the Netherlands .... any better?

Er........excuse me Mr Martin......I am the weal Wobert......I'll accept no imposters.......thank-you!

TBH the extra 100kgs that the cabrio weights will pull the power to weight down too much......my MCS flies along the roads I commute along.......less power would be a problem methinks.
