My new toy next to my XKR

Haven't been very active on here of late and the red Mini Cooper below is the main reason why
Another UK import (I like RHD and there's a lot more choice online). Picked it up last week from Derby.
Fun to drive, but the XKR is in a different league power-wise![Wink](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Mini to be used for the school run.

Amazing, to log in and see my garage, with different colors. I too purchased a Mini Cooper to go along with my Jag. Well actually the Mini for my wife, couldn't very well deny her her dream toy, when I had mine, it's what she wanted.
I did purchase an S model '06 which has the supercharged 1.6L. Not a bad little daily driver, pretty quick and corners like stink. Funniest thing price was not that far apart.

Thanks for all your positive comments, guys ![Smile](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I did consider the Cooper S, but with insurance and fuel costs being considerably higher I decided to be reasonable and go with the standard Cooper. As I said, handling is fun, but not on a parr with the MX5/Miata I used to have and as for power the Jag blows it into the weeds (obviously
