ok heres my opinion

VXR vs. Cooper S

The VXR is much nicer looking, has more power, is quicker, is bigger, is more reliable, easier to modify, cheaper to service and in general just cheaper to buy.

Also fro only my experiences driving both (haven't spent as much time in VXRs as i have the Coopers), the Cooper S suffers worse from torque steer than the VXR, almost to the point where you can just change gear to change lanes!!

If you're set on the two, buy the VXR and with the thousands you've saved on the Mini, buy some performance mods, or invest it in something worthwhile!!

Or there are many other cars in that price range to choose from!!

Budget is roughly about 30-40k

I love the New Audi TT but i dont want to spend Big amount of $$.
I did a search on Youtube about Mini's, they are quick lil machine.

Second hand TT? I can vouch for them, theyre fooking awesome

out of those two Id probably go the cooper, its something different.

Although with 40ish k Id be seriously tempted to spend that little bit more and get the new megane

If it must be out of those 2, then go for whichever you prefer most...

However with that budget, you are open to so many other choices, alot of them being a new car instead of S/H...

+ 1

As stated not only the Megane, but with a little more $$ there are plenty other new car choices...

How about a new Gti Polo with change to spare ;)

and use your spare change for some performance mod. besides with 30-40k budget you could pick up a golf gtior even a ralliart lancer

New WRX would be an awesome choice, especially with the STI's wide body for the same coin as the previous WRX model :)
