Well i ended up not getting an F1

[slim_boy_fat]

After much drivng and looking at almost every car within a £15k budget i ended up not going for the F1. For a number of good reason, the biggest was what the thing migh be worth in 2-3 years. I still think its a stunning car and a real step up fromt he 182.

I really wanted something a bit better buid quality and more solid.

I narrowed it down to the Focus ST or a Mini Cooper JWS.

Ended up going for the Mini. Its a very special car, so welll put together great spec and more than quick enough with 210bhp and load of supercharged torque.

I probably would have been very very happy with the Clio, but i thing more happy with the Mini.

Cheers guys

I do like mini's used to love them but gone off them abit now but still a great car, post some pics mate.

probably went for the safest choice!

 

[Bloooor]

Got any pics mate? really like the Build Quality of the mini's and the power is great! Just not to keen on the looks and the whining of the supercharger

Turbo should be nice but hella expensive....!

Yes, no idea how you post them on here.

The supercharger and the Works exhaust go together nicely.

I love the cooper jws. Wish i could afford one. There is a really nice cooper s around where i live. It's mint green and has 19" kahn wheels and it's been slammed. so nice

Pick it up tomorrow, and looking forward to it.

Yes its not the best consumption but its not going to do much mileage, 5k a year tops, got my zx10-r for the summer and the family e-class at the weekend.
