Definitely a URL worth keeping

It's great to see that the 05 MCS produces more power than the claimed figures.

Although, I wonder how accurate the figures really are?...

I'm not sure how accurate the figures are, although it's an independent website so it's unlikely to be biased to a specific car.

Comparing the '02 Cooper-S to the '05 version shows real improvements in the engine performance, particularly in torque. The 2nd lot of figures are taken at the hubs (wheels) so obviously these figures should be lower than what the manufacturer claims, however this is not the case for the 05' Cooper-S.
