    A standard Coopers is 170 im sure.

    The Works in 210.

    The title only states a standard 's'.

    Soo power to weight ratio a seb'd GT should have a pretty good chance as long as it's in the right gear no lag etc as the Mini has instant power with that super charger.

    Dreadful lump of German crap. They need to read about Chapman.

    I strongly disagree with that statement, have you driven one, or around a corner, handling is out of this world!

    Chapman? :xmas36:

    here is my girlfriend s it is reasonably quick and handles very well in fact the best fwd car ive ever driven.


    id say it would give a seb gt a run for its money but i feel the gt will just do it.

    It is a simply incredible car in the current market, in my opinion. Fabulously built, quick, handle like a dream - its genuinely right up there with the best FWD cars in terms of handling and fun. I love the GT, but it really is in a different class altogether.

    Colin Chapman mini was a revelation in its time, but the two cars should not be compared, its not fair to either.
