Very nice indeed! 
They look cool in metallic grey, shame they blend in with the road so well though.
Enjoy!

Well the cooper's gone, long live the cooper S
Unfortunately a few weeks back, a bus decided to take our cooper off the road and wrote it off. After a few weeks of fighting we got a good payout and decided as the cooper s was fetching similar values to well spec'd coopers, we might as well upgrade. I was impressed with the drive, perhaps not as quick as i expected but much better than the cooper which always looked the part but was painfully slow:redface:
Anyway, we got a 2005 facelift with 26k miles as opposed to the 38k on the cooper. Its better spec'd and all in all we ended up with £50 left over.
The spec
Dark grey
chilli
panoramic roof
sat nav
bullet alloys
chrome interior
full leather
mp3 changer
air con
xenons
I've posted some pics, not clean yet as its all been a bit of a rush but its in great condition
Hope you all like
Oh yea, love the supercharger whine:biggrin:

Very smart
Looking good.
Nice MINI
Nice S. Best colour too
Hey! Looks great!!
Very nice - virtually the same as mine
Had it a week and marvellous fun. I like the free reving engine/charger sound, flat-on-rails handling, fantastic seats, and all the toys. Mind, this is compared to a mk2 Golf! I have been driving my Mum's One for a while, so I sort of knew what to expect.
On the not-so-sure front, I do find the clutch/gear change a handful, especially first-second, but I think that's me, and the ride on Sheffield's roads (UK's worst) is pretty unsettling. Not too bad at all on the motorway, and 30+ mpg - better than I was expecting.
I'll post some pics when I've thought of some more things to say and got past the 5 post mark ;-)
