OK, so I've done some searching around here, but haven't come across a definitive answer.
When you have the sport package on a 2002 Cooper, does that give you the Sport Suspension Plus as well? Is this the same package that is on the standard 'S' model? Last part of the question is, what are the differences between them...I'm assuming the whole works, spring rates, valving and swaybars?

Thanks,
Steve

In the US, Sport Suspension Plus is not included in the Sport Package for the Cooper.

I believe the only difference between the two suspensions, is larger sway bars on the Sport Suspension Plus.

In Canada it is the same as the states, only the MCS gets the SS+, MC gets SS.

Perhaps with a special order you could get it but the sports package does not change the suspension on the MC.

Forgot to mention ... Sport Suspension Plus can be ordered on a US Cooper as an option for $500. I didn't see this standalone option on the MINI Canada configurator.
