Great game and the mcs has beaten everything in the 3 races I've completed

Im holding out for the full version - I think I'd get bored of the Prologue very quickly!! I've got a few mates who have bought it, so I'll jack it off of them Does look like an astonishing game, cannot wait for the full version

Oh, and the fact that I will have to re-mortgage my bedroom to fund a PS3

Its £25k CR, but it says 06 Mini Cooper S, non Chilli with Xenons.

BUT

Go in car view and see a pre-facelift MINI

Good game though!

Just thought i would add my lap time in MIni Cooper S for the Eiger Norwand track.
1'22.298 time trial with no driving aids and using normal controller.
I know it's not a mega quick time but it's a bench mark.
It would be nice to see some more lap times posted to give give me a goal to try and beat
p.s is anybody using the logitech G25 wheel, if so whats it like?

i love the way the supercharger whine is there, and the handling is very very very realisitc. The driving dynamiques on this game are like nothing else. and the AI players are a lot better than before, they cut you up, hold lines everything. Really good.

I think there is more than enough to keep you entertained on this. Plus also be aware there will be a few car packs being released in a few months for some more cars etc. a bit of a taster of the 10000 cars int he full game

I downloaded it last night and have only done 3 events so far (in the Cooper-S) but it looks nice so far. Add me in as 'AztecMonkey' and maybe hook up a Mini race sometime!
