Overall, the Cooper S is the more appealing car. Less exciting and edgy, certainly, but much more attractive in so many ways and blessed with more than enough evoness.



not exactly owned is it?? lol

"Since its make-over less than two years into its life, the 172 has lost all the visual aggression it had. It's now hard to tell it apart from the more humble versions, and parked next to the Cooper it looks almost like a hire car"

Bang on tbh, phase 1 FTW

i remember reading that before i bought my car, they also done one wiith the 172cup vs mini cooper s..... completely different story.

One of the deciding factors for buying my cup

April 2002 is a long time ago.There are many more newer mini's and others that now scalp the 172

Haha the mini was anything but owned!

It seems that, overall, they preferred the Mini tbh. Yup, owned.

Ian: There are also various other RenaultSport Clio's that have been introduced since the first 172...
