This is my first post so please be gentle with me and I do appologise if the subject has been covered before.
Has anyone had the John Cooper works upgrade to their cooper and was it worth the £2500 price tag???

Had my cooper since November and I am soooooo happy with it

Hello and welcome to MINI2!

You've asked a difficult question there! Is it worth the money? I have had a test drive in a Works Cooper and thought although it was impressive, I couldn't justify the cost of the upgrade for the amount of power you get. But thats just me, try searching the site (button above right) there are a few Works owners on this board who would be willing to answer any questions you have.

A couple of threads that might be of interest to you are:
