well, its a long story, but I have a Cooper S coming in October, this is what I really wanted, but when I ordered a good while back, I thought it would be nice to have the car when it is first launched in the summer, so I ordered a Cooper for July.

So will this be the first used Cooper available? And how much will it be worth? Or is this an act of madness?

I will be selling my One convertible in August before I take delivery of a Cooper Conbertible in September.

[SIZE=2]I will be very pleased if I make a quick buck or two, but I won’t be too upset if I loose a little either. And why not? We live in a capitalistic society where commodities are traded everywhere we look. Cars are no different than the groceries that you buy from Sainsbury’s. It is supply and demand: if demand exceeds supply, then the prices go up, and vice versa. If I make a little on this car it will be the first time ever that I have done so.
If you have a problem with the society that we live in, then try living in Cuba or North Korea where the non-capitalist systems are still in place. Then think about all the wonderful cars that have been designed in the former Communist countries such as the old Skodas and the Travant..[/size]

I'm a bit more negative than Darren. I have specced the car to sell on, because (probably like Darren) the 2nd one is the one I really want. But if it looks like I will be taking too big a hit on the value, I will just keep car 1.
